What can cause bulk solids to stop flowing from a bin?
Answer / ishan
Causes of such problems can fall into one of two categories: Material strength or Bin Geometry. In some cases, the combination of gravitational and frictional forces at some point in the container causes the solids to arch or bridge. So nearly all large bins contain an "arch-breaker" ( an upward pointing shallow metal cone set near the bottom) and can be stopped also because of rat flow (or) erratic material flow.

ENGINEERING MATERIAL - EXAMPLE 12.2 : At 150 degree Celsius, a mixture of 40 wt % Sn and 60 wt % Pb present, forming phases of alpha and beta. Chemical composition of Sn at each phase : CO (overall) : 40 %, CA (alpha) : 11 %, CB (beta) : 99 %. (a) State 2 reasons for the existences of alpha and beta phases for the mixture of Sn - Pb at 150 degree Celsius. (b) By using Lever Rule, calculate the weight fraction of each phase for alpha, WA = Q / (P + Q) and beta, WB = P / (P + Q) where Q = CB - CO and P = CO - CA.
