Particle circulation and coating in a Wurster fluidized bed under different geometries
Abstract
The performance of particle coating is essentially determined by the morphology and uniformity of coating shells, which significantly depend on particle circulation. In this study, the geometry of a Wurster fluidized bed is changed by regulating particle circulation port size and nozzle…
