FEM 2.371 - Definition of Flow Processes and Troubles in the Operation of Storage Silos Language version:EN Please note: These design principlesThis document aims to define the main concepts in the design of storage silos with regard to the flow behaviour of materials stored in silos and the problems which may occur on discharge. It is meant to assist a common understanding and the use of common concepts amongst silo designers, users and, manufacturers, as well as amongst experts from various countries. Knowledge of the problems related to the storage, flow and discharge of bulk materials is
