Controlling Conveying Velocity In Pneumatic Conveying Systems

Key performance attirbutes, namely attrition and energy consumption, are related to the conveying velocity during pneumatic transport. This paper explore various ways of controlling and manipulating the conveying velocity in a system. It is provides an overview along with specific control schemes to achieve velocity control. Both dense and dilute phase conveying is covered. Discussion of particle and gas velocities is covered as well.
