"Equal particle sizes of a different specific gravity tend to settle in a fluid bed" Your vibration test should yield dense particles at the bottom if the particles were sized equally. Without proper sizing efficient separation cannot be achieved. My sense of it is that you may have similar results to the rolling segregation test.
