1. Theoretical changes in pressure after changing particle size:

Where: 
ΔP₁ = Initial pressure (any pressure units)
ΔP₂ = Calculated pressure (same pressure units as P₁)
dp₁  = Initial mean particle size (any units but typically µm)
dp₂  = Mean particle size of new resin (same units at dp₁)

2. Ergun Modification of the Blake-Kozeny Equation for Pressure-Flow:

Where: 
ΔP = Change in pressure
L = Column Length
h = Mobile phase viscosity
u = Empty column linear velocity (cm/hr)
d_p² = Mean particle size
e = Interstitial void volume intrinsic to each resin
