Synopsis

This book takes a detailed look at design principles for pneumatic conveying systems and illustrates these with examples and case histories. WSL and Thames Polytechnic, where most of the experimental work for this book was carried out, both have excellent reputations for their extensive research. Their collaboration with a consortium of industrial manufacturers and users of pneumatic conveying equipment has resulted in this guide. There is an accompanying abbreviated guide containing salient design guidelines, and this is sold both separately and as a set. Data on a variety of materials should be of use to those designing systems to handle these materials. The guide will also prove essential to those not so familiar with pneumatic conveying, providing information on the types of systems available and their capabilities.
