ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for measuring the flowability of powder utilizes a container having a bottom wall with an opening therein. The bottom wall may be changed to provide openings of different sizes. The test consists of allowing the powder to flow through successively smaller holes. The smallest hole size through which the powder will freely flow is a measure of its flowability.
