(author)One of the most popular and frequently used models for describing homogeneous liquid-solid fluidised suspensions is the model developed by Richardson & Zaki in 1954. The superficial fluid velocity and terminal settling velocity together with an index makes it possible to determine the fluid porosity in a straightforward way. The reference...journal article 2019

Kramer, O.J.I. (author), de Moel, P.J. (author), Baars, E.T. (author), van Vugt, W.H. (author), van der Hoek, J.P. (author)Natural particles are frequently applied in drinking water treatment in up-flow fluidisation processes. Additionally, sedimentation processes are applied to clarify water and to concentrate solids. To estimate the terminal settling velocity of single solid particles in a liquid system, a comprehensive collection of equations is available. For...conference paper 2017

Kramer, O.J.I. (author), de Moel, P.J. (author), Baars, E.T. (author), van Vugt, W.H. (author), van der Hoek, J.P. (author)The literature provides a comprehensive collection of equations to estimate the<br/>terminal settling velocity of single solid particles in a liquid system. The settling velocity for perfectly round spheres can accurately be calculated. In the contrary for natural imperfect particles the experimentally measured settling velocity deviates...conference paper 2017
