Design and Analysis of Hoppers, Silos, Chutes & Feeders - Theory and Practice


Description:
Papers reporting original design solutions, criteria or procedures on powder storage and handling equipment are welcome in this session. Contributions can provide experimental and model estimates investigating on operating conditions of such equipment. Reports may also include new experimental methods and procedures able to provide useful information for the operation or the design of powder storage and handling apparatuses.
