Effect of geometric parameters at open turbine combined structure on flow field distribution of dry granulation for Si3N4 powder

To improve the uniformity of the flow field and the poor axial velocity in the chamber of Si3N4 dry granulation, the influence of geometric parameters at open turbine combined structure on the flow field distribution is studied. The Euler–Euler gas-solid two-phase flow model is established and the physical model of dry granulation chamber under the combined structure is simplified. Under the same radial structure, the volume distribution and velocity field of Si3N4 particles in the granulation chamber with a different number and angle of the axial structure at the open turbine are analyzed by the CFD method. The influence of the axial structure at the open turbine on the flow field distribution of Si3N4 particles under different geometric parameters is compared. The results show that the axial structure of the open turbine in the granulation chamber is the most uniform when the number of blades is 6 and the inclination angle is [Formula: see text], and the circulating flow of the upper and lower parts of Si3N4 powder is strong.
