A fluidized bed reactor uses a solid catalyst with a particle diameter of 0.25 mm, a bulk density of 1.50 g/mL, and a sphericity of 0.90. Under packed bed conditions, the porosity is 0.35, and the bed height is 2 m. The gas enters from the bottom of the reactor at a temperature of 600°C, with a viscosity of 0.025 cP and a density of 0.22 lb/ft³. At minimum fluidization, the porosity reaches 0.45.

Calculate:

a. The minimum superficial velocity (VM) of the gas entering the fluidized column.

b. The bed height if V = 2 VM

c. The pressure drop under conditions where V =2.5 VM
