Sanko Layer Flow Dilute Phase Conveying System

Manufacturer: Sanko Air Plant Ltd.
Features
- ine plugging can occur easily when conveying conditions change, because gas velocity operates near the floating-flow limit.
- Layer Flow and Suspension Flow may coexist in the same line as gas velocity shifts with conveying capacity, distance, and other conditions.
- In powder service, Layer Flow (middle velocity) and Dune Flow frequently coexist.
- Although Layer Flow gas velocity lies in the low range of dilute-phase (Floating Flow), it is termed “Middle Velocity Conveying” to distinguish it from Plug Flow and Dune Flow.
- Advantages include:
- ① Reduced material quality degradation, pipe abrasion, and streamer formation at the discharge caused by excessive velocity.
② Less powder hold-up and feed-point plugging due to low velocity and pressure fluctuations. - Delivers stable conveying while lowering both initial and operating costs.
