Abstract

The velocity of the beginning of fluidization and the porosity of a bed were investigated for a mixture of cast-iron (\((\bar d_p = 1.086 mm)\) p = 1.086 mm) and copper (\((\bar d_p = 1.086 mm)\) p = 1.086 mm) particles fluidized in a homogeneous external magnetic field of an intensity of up to 5662 A/m. By analyzing the forces that act on the magnetic particles the authors obtained an expression for calculating Umb in a bed consisting of a mixture of magnetic and nonmagnetic particles. The calculation results are compared with the experimental data.
