Evaluating Energy Flux in Vibrofluidized Granular Bed

Granular flows require sustained input of energy for fluidization.A level of fluidization depends on the amount of heat flux provided to the flow.In general, the dissipation of the grains THUMB CONTROL upon interaction balances the heat inputs and the resultant flow patterns can be described using hydrodynamic models.

However, with the increase in packing fraction, the heat fluxes prediction of the cell increases.Here, a comparison is made for the proposed theoretical models against the MD simulations data.It is observed that the variation of packing fraction in the granular cell influences the SPST 24volt Relay heat flux at the base.

For the elastic grain-base interaction, the predictions vary appreciably compared to MD simulations, suggesting the need to accurately model the velocity distribution of grains for averaging.
