Historical Review of Pneumatic Conveying

This document attempts to cover the development of pneumatic conveying over the past 100 years or so. The individual researchers who worked in the field are highlighted along with their photograph which is included at the end of the document. As time progressed in the scientific and engineering developments of these years one see a transition from a purely experimental approach with considerable empiricism to adapt to the development of numerical procedures in attempt to predict the flow characteristics. The basic physics of the phenomena of pneumatic still is not completely understood and new and novel experimental techniques are always welcome in the field.
