Abstrakt: This paper presents the results of experimental research concerning determination of Peclet number for selected zones of a hybrid fluidized-bed airlift apparatus with external liquid circulation. For this aim, the tracer stimulus-response experiments were carried out. Peclet number was then determined using the method of moments and optimization algorithm coupled with the one-dimensional dispersion model.
