Prediction of particle charging in a dilute pneumatic conveying system

Particle velocity and concentration characteristics in a horizontal dilute swirling flow pneumatic conveying

An experimental study concerning particle behaviors in a horizontal dilute swirling flow pneumatic conveying was performed. Measurements of particle velocities and concentration profiles have been carried out using the photographic image technique. From the experimental results, it is found that mean particle velocity of swirling flow pneumatic conveying is lower than that of conventional pneum...

Pneumatic Conveying System: an Overview

3 Design engineer, Scorpio, Industries ltd., (India) ABSTRACT Pneumatic conveying system has always been economic and efficient means of conveying materials. From the historical background it is evident that there has been a considerable development to that extent where in even high density materials can be easily conveyed. With many advantages over conventional conveying system, it stands in a...

The Role of Particle Shape in Pneumatic Conveying

Pneumatic conveying, in which granular materials are transported using a gas phase, is an important industrial process for bulk particulate transport. This is usually carried out in either a dilute phase, in which the particles are effectively suspended in the gas phase, or a dense phase, in which the particles move in a bulk flow. Dense phase conveying is becoming increasingly popular as it re...
