[Gasification] In line Mass Flow

[Mark Ludlow]

If a flat, horizontal section of belting can be incorporated into the feed
system, simply run it across a flat plate supported by load cells ad do
snapshots of the weight of fuel on the surface area of the plate and
multiply by the amount of belt surface (per unit of time) passing across the
plate.

Dear Mark,

 

My brother once worked for a firm in New Zealand called EMC Engineering.
They built weighing machines for conveyor belts, so it can be done. 

 

Cheers

Hey Folks

 

I was wondering if anyone can advise on a system to measure the mass flow of
a solid material (wood chips, pellets, blocks etc) in a process line.  I've
seen batch tip systems but id prefer something more continuos.  Any advice
would me much appreciated.

 

Thanks 

 

Mark Anderson
