Free flowing and cohesive powders agitation in a cylindrical convective blender- kinetics experiments and Markov chain modelling

An original methodology for studying powder flow in a cylindrical convective blender has been developed. A free-flowing and a cohesive powder were studied, at a fixed stirring speed, in rolling regime. For both powders, three apparent flow mechanisms were evidenced: convection in the volume swept by...
