Subsurface granular flow in rotating tumblers: a detailed computational study.
To better understand the subsurface velocity field and flowing layer structure, we have performed a detailed numerical study using the discrete element method for the flow of monodisperse particles in half-full three-dimensional (3D) and quasi-2D rotating tumblers. Consistent with prior measurements at the surface, a region of high speed flow with axial components of velocity occurs near each e...
متن کاملOnset mechanism for granular axial band formation in rotating tumblers.
The mechanism for band formation of a granular mixture in long rotating tumblers is unresolved 70 years after the phenomenon was first observed. We explore the onset mechanism for axial segregation of a bidisperse mixture of particles of different sizes using the discrete element method. End walls initiate axial band formation via an axial flow due to friction at the end walls. The nonuniform d...
متن کاملTransition to centrifuging granular flow in rotating tumblers: a modified Froude number
Centrifuging of granular material in a partially filled rotating circular tumbler occurs when particles are flung outward to form a ring of particles at the periphery of the tumbler rotating as a solid body. The critical rotation speed for centrifuging was studied experimentally in a quasi-two-dimensional tumbler as a function of particle diameter, tumbler fill fraction and interstitial fluid. ...
متن کاملParameters and scalings for dry and immersed granular flowing layers in rotating tumblers.
The scaling properties of the continuous flowing layer in a quasi-2D circular tumbler half filled with a granular material are studied experimentally in the presence of three different interstitial fluids (air, water, and glycerine). In the dry case, the dimensionless flowing layer thickness δ(0)/d scales with the dimensionless flow rate Q(dry)(*) = Q/(dsqrt[gd]), where Q is the flow rate, d is...
متن کاملGranular axial band formation in rotating tumblers: a discrete element method study
The onset mechanism for band formation of a granular mixture in long rotating tumblers is still largely unresolved. We study this issue for axial segregation of binary mixtures having different size particles, using discrete element method simulations. Endwalls initiate axial segregation via an axial flow due to friction. The non-uniform distribution of axial velocity in the flow together with ...
