Abstract
An empirical approach has been developed to predict the total entrainm ent flux at different levels of freeboard height. The approach is base d on the results of experimental investigations carried out in a 152 m m diameter column, with FCC as the feed powder. The powder was fluidiz ed at superficial gas velocities of 0.2 m/s and 0.7 m/s.
