| Abstract: | Pneumatic conveying of fine powder has merits, such as no dust pollution and wide flexibility of pipeline layout. Thus, pneumatic conveying is widely used in industry. However, there is no information about the relation between the pressure drop for pneumatic conveying of fine powder and the mechanical properties of powder.We explained that the pressure drop of pneumatic conveying of powder in a horizontal pipe could be estimated from the dynamic friction coefficient of the powder in the previous paper. However, the relation between the pressure drop of pneumatic conveying in an inclined pipe and the mechanical properties of the powder is not cleared yet.The effect of mechanical properties and the angle of an inclined pipe on the pressure drop for pneumatic conveying of fine powder was examined and compared with the calculated results by our model. Based on these results, it is cleared that the pressure drop for pneumatic conveying of fine powder can be estimated from the dynamic friction coefficient of the powder and the inclined angle of the pipe. |
