Wall effects In practice, the influence of the confining walls on the fluid flow will be significant only when the ratio of the particle to container diameters is less than about 30 [Cohen and Metzner, 1981]. Particles will pack less closely near the wall, so that the resistance to flow in a bed of smaller diameter may
5.6.4 Effect of particle shape
The voidage of a bed of particles is strongly influenced by the particle shape, orientation and size distribution. However, voidage correlates quite well with sphericity, as shown in Figure 5.9; values of sphericity for different shape particles have been compiled by Brown et al. [1950] and German [1989] amongst others. For beds of spheres of mixed sizes, the voidage can be significantly less if the smaller size spheres can fill the voids between the larger ones. In general, the voidage of a bed of mixed particles is a function of the volume fractions f of each particle size and the ratio of the sizes. Hence, for a binary-size particle system, the mean voidage of the bed will be a function of d1=d2 and f1, f2, and the curves of " versus .d1=d2/ and f1=f2 will pass through minima. Some predictive expressions for voidage of beds of binary and ternary spherical and non-spherical particle systems are available in the literature [Yu et al. 1993; Yu and Standish; 1993]
