The purpose of the paper is the numerical simulation of a silo discharge by using an Euler-Euler approach. 3D unsteady numerical simulations of an experiment have been performed. The geometry is composed of a silo and of a free-fall chamber. Then…

In granular flows, when the solid volume fraction is large, the dynamic behaviour of particles becomes controlled by frictional effects. Theoretically these effects can not be taken into account in an Eulerian approach, based on the kinetic theory…

Almost all industrial sectors are concerned by production or handling of materials in powder form: agri-food, metallurgy, pharmacy, milling, baking, fine chemicals, mining, etc. When such materials in powder form are handled or bagged, a fraction…

Outline of reasons and objectives
Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) are among the most common pollutants. Industrial production and use of motor cars has led to an increased supply of these organic chemical substances in the atmosphere. Benzene…

In many sectors of activity, the fabrication or use of dangerous products can cause pollution liable to jeopardize the health of workers exposed to it. Capturing pollutants at source is often the technique given priority for reducing occupational…

This numerical study deals with the inverse problem of estimating the intensity and the position of a pollutant source. The estimation of time-varying emission rates of pollutant sources of H2S in a sewer chamber is first implemented through…
