Abstract: The flow of granular materials through curved or straight discharge chutes is classified as either “fast” or “slow.” Fast flow is the more efficient and occurs when the material flows in ...

Abstract: Using a single particle model and an assumed resisting force, the problem of finding the required shape of gravity flow discharge chutes to achieve minimum transit time is formulated by breaking ...

Abstract: In the determination of the dynamic characteristics of bulk handling systems the complexity of the problem usually makes experimental identification necessary. Experimental techniques which are ...
