What kind of pellets?

conveying distances involved ?

number of bends ?

how much vacuum are you pulling?

Pipe size, air and solid flow rates?

Give some more information.

we are conveying plastic pellets to a packaging systeme from many different production lines . pellets density varies 25-35 #/cft3 . There is 21 ft vertical lift and many elbows , not sweeps . vacuum levels are 13-17 inches and can be varied .

We think this type of conveying behaves more like liquid transfer rather than dilute phase conveying ? We used 90 deg els rather than sweeps as some materials skin .

Would like to recalc the whole system
