4. Flow aid systems
In many cases, the use of auxiliary flow systems and drainage devices is essential. This is the case, for example, when :
mass or natural flow is impossible;
the risk of vaulting is present;
a controlled flow of solids is required.
4.1 Different types of industrial systems
The various flow aid systems have been listed in a very interesting
document from the European Materials Handling Federation [Doc. FEM
