In order to investigate the influence of baffles on the mixing effect of particles during ceramic dry granulation process.Air-particles interaction was analyzed by euler gas-solid two phases flow model, the granulation area was sirnplified.The three dimensional physical model of particles mixing process was constructed, granulation room rotary motion was simulated by sliding grid method and multiple reference frame method, turbulent motion was analyzed by modified RNG discrete model. The influence of different baffles on particles mixing was investigated according to the volume fraction distribution and velocity field, changed the position of the baffle can increase the blending effect by about 22%.The results showed: when there were no baffles, wall baffles and middle baffles in the granulation room, the average volume fraction of powder was about 0.22, 0.18 and 0.26 respectively. The average speed of powder was about 0.6m/s, 0.9m/s and 0.4m/s respectively. The wall baffle made the powder have significant axial movement, the experimental data showed: when granulation room had wall baffles, the content of active particles accounted for about 73%. It is helpful to improve the understanding of gas-solid two phase flow field in ceramic drying granulation room and provide some theoretical guidance for the design and optimization of the baffle.
