Bin dischargers

If the bin discharges in funnel flow, the bin outlet diameter should be sized to be larger than the critical rathole diameter (Of) to prevent a stable rathole from forming over the outlet. For a funnel flow bin with a circular outlet, sizing the outlet diameter to exceed the Of will also ensure that a stable arch will not form (.since a rathole is inherently stronger than an arch). The Of value is calculated in Equation (2), and additional details of the calculation are provided in Ref. 1. [Pg.101]

In contrast to the emphasis placed upon the enhancement of storage capacity with bin discharge screws, feeders designed for controlled-rate dispensing have the prime objective of securing reliable, predictable, and controllable solids flow. Two conditions have to be satisfied first, to ensure the flow channel is smooth and continuous in all conditions of operation second, that the volume of the feed screws fills in a consistent manner with loose solids in as uniform a state of density as possible. In general, a mass flow channel best serves both objectives, due to its performance reliability and because the total flow channel passes all the... [Pg.36]

Dedicated screw feeders may be classified according to the primary function they undertake. These duties may be broadly broken down between bin discharge feeders and metering feeders. There is no sharp... [Pg.49]

For a bin discharge duty, an important feature of the discharge function is the sequence in which varied regions of the stored contents are extracted. The geometry of the screw controls the extraction pattern that is imposed upon the stored material presented at the hopper/feeder interface. A key performance factor of the feeder is, therefore, how the screw form varies along this section. A further function commonly performed by bin... [Pg.50]

Bin discharge screws are intended to work in flooded conditions. Starting loads and extraction pattern are related, in that pressures developed at the screw interface, and the pattern of extraction imposed at this region, depend upon the design of the hopper section of the bin and how it operates. The selection of screw size, its form and geometry, and the hopper/screw interface design are interdependent within the overall bin design, for both cost and performance. [Pg.51]

Bin dischargers n. Restores flowabihty to materials, which are prone to packing during storage in bins, silos, or surge hoppers, and promotes free flow of materials, which tend to bridge or hang up. [Pg.107]

As a rule, in conjunction with grinding, the coal is dried to a residual moisture content of between 0.5 and 1.5%, which is suitable for firing. Completely dry coal is more difficult to ignite. In systems with intermediate storage of the pulverized coal it is, however, preferable to reduce the moisture content to below 1 % in order avoid possible trouble with build-up (caking) and difficulties at bin discharge outlets, rotary gates and screw conveyors. [Pg.149]
