Performance evaluation of dry dispersers
Advanced Powder Technology, 1993 Several kinds of powders were dispersed into air by use of a mixer type or a nozzle-jet type dry disperser and the size distributions of the dispersed aerosol particles were measured. In the data analysis, a newly defined dispersion efficiency was introduced in order to represent the dispersion state of aerosol particles, independently of the sort of ...
