Challenges in tracing material flow passing a loss-in-weight feeder in continuous manufacturing processes
Contributor(s):: Peterwitz, Moritz, Gerling, Sina, Schembecker, Gerhard
Loss-in-weight feeders are an integral part of most continuous manufacturing processes, ensuring a constant mass flow. The feeders cause a significant degree of back-mixing in such lines. Understanding back-mixing is essential for the treatment of disturbances. However, feeders refilled...
