What is the angle of repose and what are its applications in the chemical industry?
Submitted by: AdministratorThe dictionary defines "angle of repose" as "the inclination of a plane at which a body placed on the plane would remain at rest, or if in motion would roll or slide down with uniform velocity; the angle at which the various kinds of earth will stand when abandoned to them”. Applications to the chemical industry...think about the design of the conical section of a storage bin. The material would not fall out the bottom, as we may want. This concept is also important in the design of system designed to move bulk solids...for the same reasons.
