🔍 Key Concepts

• Relationship between air pressure and bulk material flow in a pneumatically loaded tank • How aeration devices work to fluidize pulverized cargo during discharge • Purpose of a pressure‑equalizing / vent line between different spaces in a closed tank

💭 Think About

• Look at where the line labeled E starts and ends inside the tank. Which two spaces does it connect, and during which operation (filling vs discharging) would pressure difference between those spaces be most critical? • Ask yourself what would happen to the slope sheet and aeration system if pressure above the cargo and pressure in the aeration space were very different while material is being blown out. • Compare the answer choices that mention relieving pressure at a specific flow rate with those that mention equalizing pressure between defined locations. Which description best matches a simple pipe running between two internal spaces?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify exactly what area inside the tank the component E is connected to at each end (top space, aeration space, or opposite side of slope sheet). • Decide whether E looks like a safety relief valve sized for a certain flow, or a balancing / vent line with no moving parts. • Match the operation in each choice (filling vs discharging) with when pressure imbalance would cause problems for the aeration device and cargo flow.
