The mixing rate and distribution of particles in centrifugal fluidized beds were investigated. Particles having different sizes were found to have steady state radial distributions in qualitative agreement with theoretical predictions. Visual observations show that bubbles are the primary mechanism causing radial mixing, and the effectiveness and rate of mixing were found to increase with air flow rate. Based on the assumption that axial mixing can be described in terms of a diffusion model, the rate of axial mixing is expressed in terms of a mixing coefficient.
