    How does sphere diameter affect bulk density in a given volume?

    Haven't got the time to wait for the experts to commit, so I'll post the 'data' and say "TTF". Just a little Q&D exercise, because I already knew there was a non-random relationship between sphere diameter and bulk density. On the left are the constants: Measured cylinder volume and measured...

    How does sphere diameter affect bulk density in a given volume?

    So, IRStuff, just for the record, you're asserting that there is NO correlation between sphere diameter and bulk density? Please confirm. I don't want to put words in your mouth. OK handleman - I was just trying make a point, not draw a perfect analogy. No "need" to consider a liquid to make my...

    How does sphere diameter affect bulk density in a given volume?

    Thank you all for your responses. SnTMan - I have a fundamental problem with the "74% solution". I'll explain my 'fundamental problem' this way: 1) Assuming a cylinder of diameter of 1 (dc=1) and length 10 (Lc=10), and spheres of diameter 1 (ds=1), I will be able to fit 10 spheres in the...

    How does sphere diameter affect bulk density in a given volume?

    I am an EE, not an ME, so please accept my apology, (and point me to where it should be), if this is not the correct place to ask this question. I am a retired engineer looking to solve a 'personal' problem. I have looked extensively for a solution to the below defined problem, and have found...
