lowest gas velocity at which drag on a bed of particles balances their weight so the bed begins to behave like a fluid.

In chemical engineering, minimum fluidization velocity refers to lowest gas velocity at which drag on a bed of particles balances their weight so the bed begins to behave like a fluid. This meaning comes from Wen (1966) in AIChE Journal.[1]
