Summary

Based on a dense-gas kinetic theory model, theoretical solutions were generated to study and compare experimental and theoretical results for velocity profiles and heat transfer characteristics in granular flows in a vertical chute. The results indicated that the particle size and the medium density adjacent to the boundary played an important role in determining the heat transfer at the boundary.
