Paddle Kneader: Kneading and Dispersion of Powders and Fluids Granuleworks × Particleworks coupling

Here is a process of moisture control of powder using a paddle kneader. High-viscosity liquid is added while the powder is stirred, and it is shown how the liquid is evenly mixed with the powder. Dispersion of the liquid into the powder is a difficult operation, but the result of this simulation also shows that the liquid does not disperse sufficiently, resulting in adhesion of the liquid to the wall.
