Within the field of pneumatic conveying horizontal (Plug-1) and vertical plug flows have been investigated only in the context of cohesive fine powders. This paper considers a series of experiments using fuzzy cottonseeds, which greatly differ in particle and bulk properties from fine powders, to investigate plug formation. In this study, several possible dense phase behaviours were observed, which were consistent in vertical and horizontal orientations and mostly influenced by the batch size of feeding into the rig due to its influence on particle arrangement. Particle arrangement at the plug base or rear was found to be critical for achieving stable plugs, with a requirement of the rear or base batch having the length of more or equal to pipe diameter. This work sheds light on the general features and mechanisms governing horizontal and vertical plug formation.

Train load-out bins are generally large structures that employ flood loading chutes to rapidly load material into wagons. It is often important when designing these structures to consider the dynamic loads associated with the rapid unloading of the material as these loads can often cause vibrations. Typically, calculations for the dynamic loads are based on traditional continuum calculations coupled with site data, as the unloading rate depends on factors such as gate opening time, the corresponding outlet size, train speed, and material properties. The continuum approach has been previously illustrated in the past with a case study [1]. This paper will present results using the Discrete Element Method (DEM) on the same case study and will compare results in terms of instantaneous flow rates, as well as dynamic forces and accelerations of the flowing bulk solid during discharge.
