Abstract
Experimental data are reported for the minimum spouting velocity, bed pressure drop, maximum spoutable height and spout diameter which show that spouting of small particles with water represents a new spouting regime. The transition from large to small particle spouting occurs when the voidage at the inlet to the spout goes from unity to less than unity.
