Granular convection in microgravity.
We investigate the role of gravity on convection in a dense granular shear flow. Using a microgravity-modified Taylor-Couette shear cell under the conditions of parabolic flight microgravity, we demonstrate experimentally that secondary, convective-like flows in a sheared granular material are close to zero in microgravity and enhanced under high-gravity conditions, though the primary flow fiel...
متن کاملGranular Pressure Measurement in Fluidized Beds
Experiments were carried out to measure the additional pressure, called the granular pressure, which is exerted on the containing wail of a fluidized bed due to particle collisions with that wall. Measurements were made for water fluidized beds using glass beads of 1.3 mm and 3 mm diameter, lead shot of 2.1 mm diameter and plastic particles. The granular pressure was observed to increase to a m...
متن کاملPossible origin of convection flow in granular systems
– From the observation of a convection flow in a single layer of vertically vibrated sand, we conclude that the amplitude gradient of the vibrating bed, which is naturally expected but often neglected, can be crucial for the same phenomenon in containers with more sand. A simple model is proposed to explain the dependence of the drift velocity on the vibration amplitude and frequency. The conve...
متن کاملDynamics of gas-fluidized granular rods.
We study a quasi-two-dimensional monolayer of granular rods fluidized by a spatially and temporally homogeneous upflow of air. By tracking the position and orientation of the particles, we characterize the dynamics of the system with sufficient resolution to observe ballistic motion at the shortest time scales. Particle anisotropy gives rise to dynamical anisotropy and superdiffusive dynamics p...
متن کاملContinuum theory of partially fluidized granular flows.
A continuum theory of partially fluidized granular flows is developed. The theory is based on a combination of the equations for the flow velocity and shear stresses coupled with the order-parameter equation which describes the transition between the flowing and static components of the granular system. We apply this theory to several important granular problems: avalanche flow in deep and shal...
