The condition in which all the material in a bin moves whenever any is withdrawn is _____ flow.

  • A.plug
  • B.mass
  • C.funnel
  • D.core

Answer: B

Correct answer: mass

In mass flow every particle is in motion whenever anything is withdrawn, so there are no stagnant regions and the bin discharges first-in first-out. It requires steep smooth walls and an adequate outlet. The alternative, funnel flow, moves only a central core and leaves the rest in place - the condition in which ratholing occurs.
