Abstract
A series of hollow cylinders are mounted inside the cylindrical portion of a solids blender to propagate the velocity profile from the bottom to the top of the cylinder and thus to extend the blending capacity of the bin to its entire length and volume. The invention can be used with funnel flow hoppers, mass flow hopper, and cone-in-cone mass flow hoppers. Ranges of the design parameters are described.
