1、Designation:D677308Standard Test Method forBulk Solids Using Schulze Ring Shear Tester1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D6773;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in pa
2、rentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope*1.1 This test method covers the apparatus and proceduresfor measuring the unconfined yield strength of bulk solidsduring both continuous flow and after st
3、orage at rest.Inaddition,measurements of internal friction,bulk density,andwall friction on various wall surfaces are included.1.2 The most common use of this information is in thedesign of storage bins and hoppers to prevent flow stoppagesdue to arching and ratholing,including the slope and smooth-
4、ness of hopper walls to provide mass flow.Parameters forstructural design of such equipment may also be derived fromthis data.Another application is the measurement of theflowability of bulk solids,for example,for comparison ofdifferent products or optimization.1.3 All observed and calculated values
5、 shall conform to theguidelines for significant digits and rounding established inPractice D6026.1.3.1 The procedures used to specify how data are collected/recorded or calculated in this standard are regarded as theindustry standard.In addition,they are representative of thesignificant digits that
6、generally should be retained.The proce-dures used do not consider material variation,purpose forobtaining the data,special purpose studies,or any consider-ations for the users objectives:and it is common practice toincrease or reduce significant digits of reported data to becommensurate with these c
7、onsiderations.It is beyond the scopeof this standard to consider significant digits used in analysismethods for engineering design.1.4 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard.No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.5 This standard does not purport to address
8、all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:2D653 Terminology Relat
