Popis: | Pneumatic conveying is the transportation of bulk solids in enclosed pipelines via a carrier gas, typically air. The local flow pattern in a pipeline is a function of the conditions, and slug flow can form under certain conditions. Slug flow is a naturally occurring, wave-like flow where the bulk material travels along the pipeline in distinct `slugs'. Establishing the environment for the formation of slugs within the conveying system is essential to maximise the overall system efficiency and minimise damage to the bulk material. MISG2021 considered a wide range of mathematical approaches to slug formation and travel. These two key problem areas have the most significant potential to impact the system design and efficiency. Critical interconnected facets of pneumatic conveying systems were investigated and an overview for future work was developed. Many of the avenues uncovered during the MISG2021 require more time for in-depth analysis. This analysis and framework will aid in optimising conveying system design and provide insight to construct more efficient pneumatic conveying systems. Refereed/Peer-reviewed |
