Granular flows in a rotating drum: the scaling law between velocity and thickness of the flow.
The flow of dry granular material in a half-filled rotating drum is studied. The thickness of the flowing zone is measured for several rotation speeds, drum sizes and beads sizes (size ratio between drum and beads ranging from 47 to 7400). Varying the rotation speed, a scaling law linking mean velocity vs. thickness of the flow, v approximately h(m), is deduced for each couple (beads, drum). Th...
متن کاملExperimental and Numerical Studies of Granular Flows in a Rotating Drum
Granular flow in a rotating drum is studied by experiments and by Computation Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations. The particulate phase is modelled based on the Continuum Eulerian Approach (CEA) in the simulation. The particulate phase CEA prediction using the common Gidaspow granular kinetic viscosity or the Syamlal-O’brien granular kinetic viscosity fails to predict the measured dynamic angle o...
متن کاملDiffusion of a granular pulse in a rotating drum.
The diffusion of a pulse of small grains in an horizontal rotating drum is studied through discrete elements methods simulations. We present a theoretical analysis of the diffusion process in a one-dimensional confined space in order to elucidate the effect of the confining end-plate of the drum. We then show that the diffusion is neither subdiffusive nor superdiffusive but normal. This is demo...
متن کاملS shape of a granular pile in a rotating drum.
The shape of a granular pile in a rotating drum is investigated. Using discrete elements method (DEM) simulations we show that the "S shape" obtained for high rotation speed can be accounted for by the friction on the end plates. A theoretical model which accounts for the effect of the end plates is presented and the equation of the shape of the free surface is derived. The model reveals a dime...
متن کاملPattern selection by a granular wave in a rotating drum.
The results of an experimental investigation of granular segregation in a thin rotating drum are presented. A mechanism based on the presence of an uphill wave of particles has been found to govern the observed pattern of petals. Specifically we develop a simple model that captures the essential physics of the segregation and yields an algebraic expression that predicts the number of petals in ...
