Container Filled with Particulates
Container Filled with Particulates
This Demonstration shows a rectangular or cylindrical container and its particulate contents, such as a cereal, tea leaves, coffee, dried fruit, salt, or spice. It gives the container's external dimensions, contents, and headspace. The input parameters are the content's mass and bulk density, the desired headspace in percent of the container's height, and its width and thickness or diameter. The Demonstration calculates and displays the container's height, its area and total volume, the volume of the contents, and its area per unit contents' mass.
