Abstract
Experimental measurements of the exit time distribution during the batch discharge of a flatbottomed cylindrical bunker show good agreement with the predictions of the kinematic model of Litwiniszyn (1963, Bull. Acad. Pol. Sci. 11, 61–70) during the early stages of discharge. During the later stages, the descending top surface overtakes the particles at large distances from the centreline and transfers them to the fast-moving central core with the result that they are discharged sooner than predicted by the kinematic model.
