| contents | <p>This paper presents a complete design framework for elasto-mechanical dust-suppressing hopper discharge systems. The framework derives the full hopper geometry and sizing solely from publicly available engineering literature, specifically the Johanson mass-flow equation (1965), the Beverloo orifice correlation (1961), and Jenike’s bulk solids design principles (1964). It demonstrates that the complete geometry (discharge diameter, cone angle, height, and aspect ratio) is fully determinable from only two inputs: target mass flow rate and bulk density. A density floor of 500 kg/m³ is identified below which coherent solid-column formation becomes unreliable. All equations, safety factors, and design rules are derived exclusively from published sources.</p> |
