Equations Flashcards
Van der waals force (adhesion force)
F(ad)=(A*Rp)/6x^2
A=Hamakar constant (7.2*10^-20)
Rp=radius of particle
x= Gap between particles
** When distance is small force is high**
Gravity force
F(gr)=4/3piRp^3*rho
Forces due to liquid bridges
F(s)=2piy*Dp
y= surface tension
Dp=Particle diameter
Breakage equations (3)
Ribbon tensile strength
tensile strength= 3FG/2wt^2
F= force
G= gap between beams
W=ribbon width
t=thickness
pressing force
Pmax=2Rf/WDF
Rf= pressing force
W=width of roll
D= roll diameter
f=force factor
Pmax = peak pressure
Hardness
H=Fmax/Ap(Hc)
Fmax = max force
Ap(Hc) = projected contact area
Hc indentor contact depeth at Hmax
Hmax=Hc+Hf
Hmax = total distance
Hf = distance after loading
Hc = sinking depth
Granule size distribution
Y=1-exp(-x/xo)^n
Gravitational force
Fg=(d^3pi/6)rho*g
d= diameter
rho=particle density
buoyancy force
Fb=(d^3pi/6)rho*g
rho=particel density
drag force

pressure drop=180((1-e)^2/e^3)((viscU)/(d^2rho))
e=voidage
visc = visccity
U=velocity
min fluidisation velocity (baeyan and geldart correlation)
look at notes but used when particle size <100Um
min fluidsation velocity (Wen and Yu)
look at notes but use when particle size>100Um
archemedies number
Ar=(pf(pp-pf)gd^3)/visc*2
pp=particle density
pf=fluid density
visc= viscocity
Bed density
Pb=(1-e)pp
e=voidage
pp= particle density
