Flow and mixing of elongated particles in rotating drums of different sizes by Jinhua Song, Numan Naeem, Hu Fan, Guanhua Li, Maosong Li, Yu Guo, Jianzhong Lin, Jianzhong Lin, Jinxin Tie

“…For both monodisperse and binary particle systems, dynamic angle of repose is determined mainly by a Froude number Fr, measuring the ratio of centrifugal force to gravitational force on a particle, while it is insensitive to scale-up ratio α, defined as the ratio of cross-sectional areas of the current drum to the reference one. Average particle velocity and contact force generally increase with both Froude number and scale-up ratio. …”
