Abstract
A riffle distributor assembly for influencing the travel properties of a material feed streammoving between a pulverizerand a furnaceis part of a feed pathhaving one ductA having a branch entryA and another branch ductC having a branch entryC both downstream of upstream passage peripheries UPZ defined between adjacent intake vanesthrough which the feed stream of the materialtravels in two segregated portions. A motor drive assemblymoves the intake vanesrelative to the incoming flow reference axis IFA, whereupon intake areas defined between adjacent intake vanesmoves relative to the incoming flow reference axis IFA such that the travel properties of the one portion of material in the one branch ductA are different than its travel properties before the movement of intake areas defined between adjacent intake vanes
