The Effect of Mixer Properties and Fill Level on Granular Flow in a Bladed Mixer
Contributor(s):: Remy, B, Glasser, BJ, Khinast, JG
The discrete element method was used to study the effect of mixer properties and fill level oil the granular flow of monodisperse, cohesionless spheres in a bladed mixer. For fill levels just covering the span of the blades, a three-dimensional (3-D) recirculation zone develops in front of the...
