Analysis of Capsule Pipeline System by the Method of Characteristics : Numerical Analysis and Comparison with Transport Experiment

概要

論文の詳細を見る
Based on the calculation of our previous paper, the transport characteristics of capsule in pipelines are examined by varying the pipe inlet pressure, pipe length and pipe diameter, and further it is shown that by the use of an exhaust valve placed at the middle of the pipeline an efficient transport of capsule can be achieved. To confirm the numerical analysis some experimental works are carried out and it is found that the numerical analysis is valid. The measurements according to Cudlin and Harman and those obtained with practical capsule pipelines are qualitatively predicted by the present calculation as well.
