Description: Screw based elevators can exist in one of three basic configurations. One where the screw rotates inside a stationary casing, one where the casing rotates opposite to the screw rotation direction, and finally where the screw is stationary and the casing rotates. The later is patented as an 'OLDS' elevator. This paper presents initial data for two of the three possible configurations that a newly constructed, specifically designed test rig allows. This has allowed comparisons of throughput in the different configurations for two different bulk materials.
