In this study, the feasibility of two techniques for real-time monitoring of scale deposition thickness were evaluated. Traditional pressure drop measurements and a variant of the heat pulse monitoring technique which was developed in this study were tested and compared in a lab scale experiment...

The main objectives of this study were to quantify the classification efficiency of a binary mixture of two different particle types and to demonstrate that CPFD can be used to simulate the main features of the classification process. A lab-scale cylindrical fluidized bed (8.4 cm inner diameter...

Mass loss of inner wall surface due to particle impact, also referred as erosive wear, is a common challenge encountered in industrial pneumatic conveying systems. Hard bulk material tends to interact with the surface and ultimately results leakages into the surrounding. Previous studies have shown...
