To support the design of spouted bed reactors, experiments are performed in a rectangular spouted bed to measure the peak pressure drop (ΔP_max) and the internal and external spouting velocities (U_is and U_es). Four particle types spanning under Geldart D and B are used. U_is and U_es are measured from bed pressure drop and expansion ratio profiles, respectively, with the U_es/U_is ratio of each particle type obtained. Additionally, correlations predicting the ΔP_max of Geldart D and B particles are developed by reviewing published correlations and investigating the nozzle effect. Good prediction is achieved with a slope of 0.997 and an adjusted R² of 0.998 in a 95% confidence interval. U_es is predicted through correlations developed by adding effects of d_p/D_i and H₀ in the Mathur–Gishler equation. The calculated U_es agrees well with the experimental data, achieving a slope of 0.998 and an adjusted R² of 0.998 in a 95% confidence interval.
