Abstract
A deflector device for improving particle distribution within a coal piping system includes a base defining an outer circumference. The base is configured to be mounted inside a pipe such that the base extends partially around the inner circumference of the pipe with the circumferences of the pipe and base being substantially aligned concentrically. A deflector extends radially inward from the base. The deflector is configured to direct a concentrated flow of coal particles toward the center of the pipe.
