Dynamic Behavior of Air Void during the Discharge of Cohesive Powder in a Hopper Using a Rubber Air Spring

An unstable discharge rate occurs during dry fine powder discharge from a hopper because of the significant two-phase solid/gas interactions that occur in powder flows. In addition, the air bubble phenomenon may occur in a silo during fine powder discharge. In this study, we conducted experiments us...
