Cover Story: In this study, we conducted experiments using a dual-structure hopper, and examined the effects on the hopper’s internal flow structure, the cavity fluid pressure, the pressure inside the airtight cavity section, and the powder discharge rate when changes are made in the position of the supplied air injection port and the solenoid valve’s open(Vo)/close(Vc) timing. This paper confirmed that the position of the appropriate pressure supply port depends on the position of the air injection supply port and the timing of the solenoid valve. It was also clarified that the change in expansion/contraction of the flexible container due to air vibration is determined by the balance between the amount of air inserted and the amount of air discharged.
