Abstract

The experimental accessibility of disperse systems often is a critical factor when it comes to the development of modeling approaches that intend to converge towards an exact solution. Often, integral or pseudo-homogeneous values are used to reduce the complexity of the system, but a detailed single particle or interface analysis is crucial to understand relevant effects that also affect the swarm behavior. A high number of experimental techniques with respective limitations and advantages is available to quantify these effects. In this work, an overview on measurement techniques for momentum, heat and mass transfer in particle swarms as well as for the particle size distribution and interface characterization is provided. The industrial applicability is addressed by pointing out the vicinity to the process and the costs of different measurement techniques.
