Disign of granulating plates and granulating drums. Equations relating mechanical and geometrical parameters have been derived for use in calculating the power requirements of granulating plates and granulating drums. An attempt is made to maintain the same product properties, especially the porosity and size of the agglomerates, on scale‐up of the granulating equipment. This condition considerably limits the possible operational parameters. In order to define the operating conditions on scaling‐up from model experiments, their influences are described in terms of theoretical models and empirical results. The utility of the expressions derived is illustrated using the design of a granulation plate as example.
