Summary
In present, there are a lot of storage systems not working properly in Czech industry. The problem is more acute in regard to transport of tough flow powder, which often changes flow properties depending upon storage and environmental conditions, such as storage time, temperature, moisture, etc. Identification of pressure inside the storage mass using pressure (stress) detector may be a possible solution for the problem, which is provided by modeling of the particulate solid flow. The detector with silo model is able to assure a clear image to pressure/stress identifications in particulate solid. Moreover, the third dimension is unique and enriches the area of the pressure knowledge. A two dimensional stress condition of the pour body explained by a Mohr's Circle goes to the three-dimensional expression and the Mohr's Circle a sphere has been followed.
