2. What Are The Different Characteristics That Can Affect The Flow Of Bulk Solids And How?
The main characteristics that can affect the flow of bulk solids are as follows: Moisture Content: when the moisture content is high the bulk solids become sticky in nature. This moisture can sometimes be absorbed from the atmosphere by some solids. Temperature: The flow of the bulk solids can be sometimes affected by the temperature and also the period for which it is exposed to a particular temperature. Particle size: More cohesive particles are generally found in bulk solids that are finer. Round particles are handled easily in comparison to odd, asymmetrical shapes.
