Abstract

Silo discharge has been extensively studied for decades although questions remain regarding the nature of the velocity eld, particularly for submerged systems. In this work, uid-driven granular drainage was performed in a quasi-2D silo with grains submerged in uid. While the observed Gaussian veloci...

description Silo discharge has been extensively studied for decades although questions remain regarding the nature of the velocity eld, particularly for submerged systems. In this work, uid-driven granular drainage was performed in a quasi-2D silo with grains submerged in uid. While the observed Gaussian velocity proles were generally consistent with current diffusion models, the diffusion length was found to signicantly decrease with height in contrast to the increases previously seen in dry silos. We propose a new phenomenological anomalous diffusion model for the spreading of the flow upwards in the cell, with the uid-driven flows we study here falling in the category of subdiffusive behaviour.
