Atomized slip conveying
PNEUMATIC CONVEYING BENEFITS:
• Remove any worker healthiness problem
• Lower investment and management cost
• Free from constraints the lay-out design

TPSim Win simulator
TPSIM WIN INPUT: TPSIM WIN OUTPUT:
• Pipeline geometry • Solid velocity
• Width of calculation steps • Air velocity
• Features of the plant • Total pressure loss
• Features of solid-gas mixture • Voidage ratio
Fundamental fluid dynamic characteristics of solid
particles are defined by 3 parameters:
- Hydraulic diameter
- Straight friction coefficient
- Bend friction coefficient

Industrial plant design: pipeline diameter
Atomized slip mass flow rate: 30 t/h
Overall length of the line: 54,5 m
• In the configuration with d=215 mm the system is more stable and flexible: the plant
can work with different values of solid loading ratio in a smaller range of pressure
drop
