Difference between revisions of "Circular Dischargers"

The '''circular dischargers''' consist of a stationary and a set of blades mounted on it. There is close degree of tolerance in clearance between the  table and the blades to minimise a permanent coating of the solids stored. During operation, these feeders rotate slowly and pushing the solids to an outlet placed just underneath. The circular feeder are slightly larger in diameter as compared to the outlet, thereby eleminating the formation of ded zones at he silos wall. Since the discharge takes place through an opening, designing several such opening will enable a more discharge of solids without creating preferential flow.
