Pneumatic Conveying Theory/Calculations
April 10, 2012 at 11:00 a.m.–12:30 p.m. (ET)
90 Minute Accredited Online Training

Who Should Attend
This online training is intended for professionals in the dry chemicals, cement, plastics, mining, food and pharmaceuticals industries and others where the handling of dry powder or granular material is required. Anyone who uses pneumatic conveying and/or designs pneumatic conveying systems will be able to use this training to design new systems, modifications and troubleshooting calculations.

It will be especially valuable to:
  • Staff engineers involved in pneumatic conveying projects
  • Industrial engineers required to evaluate cost-cutting
  • Purchasing engineers working with vendors

Description
Pneumatic conveying has been a rapidly expanding area of materials handling because of its cleanliness, flexibility, and the rapid payout possible as it replaces an older method. Little information on the subject is available to the staff engineer; little or no coverage is provided in undergraduate curricula.

This 90-minute accredited online training course will supply the theory behind this technology and will include discussions on proper calculating methods with a practical application, keys to designing both a dilute phase and a dense phase vacuum and pressure conveying system.

Review of Learning Objectives
Module 1: Calculating Methods and Application

  • Methods of calculating pressure requirement
  • Phase diagram
  • Equations

Module 2: Methods of Designing a Dilute Phase System
  • Calculating a dilute phase pressure conveying system
  • Calculating a dilute phase vacuum conveying system

Module 3: Methods of Designing a Dense Phase System
  • Calculate a dense phase pressure tank conveying system
  • Calculate a dense phase vacuum conveying system
