TWD12 Dense-Phase Flow Components in Fluid Particle Systems
OverviewPapers are invited on the operation, design and analysis of dense-phase transportation areas in fluid-particle systems. Examples of dense-phase flow areas are standpipes (vertical or angled), cyclone diplegs, trickle valves, dense-phase pneumatic transfer systems, strippers, mechanical or non-mechanical solids flow control valves or any other aspect of dense transport systems.
