Effects of particle shape on dry granular flows in hopper discharge are investigated by computer simulation within the framework of the discrete element method. The simulated results indicate that flows of elongated particles differ considerably from flows of round particles with identical properties. The elongated particles are discharged at a slower flow rate, tend to form a funnel flow, and have a severe arching effect. 5 refs., 5 figs.
