<p>An apparatus for transporting particulate material includes a housing (112, 146, 147, 190, 200, 302, 720) having an inlet (114, 321-326) for receiving particulate material and an outlet (117) through which particulate material is discharged in a moving dynamic mass. A rotor (118, 300, 400, 500, 600) is supported for rotation within the housing, adjacent a stationary glide surface (138). The rotor has a plurality of disks (121-124, 503-505, 601, 602, 701-705, 121') spaced apart by hub sections (140, 140a-140c, 506, 605) and defining a plurality of transport channels (131-133, 401-404, 501, 502, 603) between the disks, adjacent the glide surface.</p> |
