Pneumatic Transports
In order to design a pneumatic transport system, the following information is required:
 |
Quantity of material to be transported (in tonnes per hour) |
 |
Specific weight of the material to be transported (in kg per m³) |
 |
Size of the particles
|
 |
Indicate if the material has a tendency to contain lumps. |
 |
Total distance to be covered by the transport in metres (include vertical parts).
|
 |
Height difference between entry point and exit point in metres. |
 |
Number of curves in the system. |
 |
Indicate the number of entry points and exit points of the system. |
 |
Indicate the form of dust separation at the arrival of the transport (filter or cyclone). |
