Abstract

This paper aims to investigate the particle dynamic behavior in a rotating drum operating in a rolling regime under different rotating velocity, based on experimental results and simulations. Simple superphosphate fertilizer (SSP) was used as particulate matter in the current study. The Eulerian–Eulerian multiphase model along with the kinetic theory of granular flow was used in the simulations. In order to evaluate the simulation results, velocity distributions of the particulate phase were compared with experimental data. The experimental particle velocity distribution was obtained by using a high speed video camera. The numerical simulation results showed significant insights towards understanding of the particle dynamic in a rotating drum. The simulated results of particle velocity were in good agreement with the experimental data.
