Effect of particle morphology on particle pick-up velocity in dry powder inhaler

Particle entrainment is investigated by measuring the velocity required to pick up particles from rest. It is known as the pickup velocity and it is a function of the individual particle characteristics and inter-particle forces [1]. The pickup velocity of the spherical glass beads for sizes 34μm, 7...
