Description

This�book�covers�powder flow properties, their measurement and applications. A wide range of problems such as flow obstructions, segregation�and vibrations�are discussed.�The content�helps to understand�the powder flow�and provides�practical solutions.�The fundamentals of bulk solids flow are outlined: particle�particle�interactions, stress, friction, strength, density, flow properties and methods of measurement, shear testers and other test procedures, specific properties of powders and how they are influenced by moisture, temperature�and flow agents.�The�application of the flow properties in the design of properly working bulk solid containers like bins, silos�and hoppers�is also explored.�Besides, the book also covers�the technical design of silo walls, feeders, discharge aids, inserts, the assessment of stresses in silos, segregation and how to avoid it�and vibrations or shocks occurring in silos�Typham this is the title: Powders and Bulk Solids Behavior, Characterization, Storage and Flow 2nd Edition
