The focus of this study is on understanding the varying discharge rates of lognormal particle size distributions (PSDs) with the same mean particle diameter. Discrete element method (DEM) is used to simulate lognormal PSDs with the same arithmetic mean of the particle diameter of 5 mm but varying PS...
