Rotary airlocks function as pressure boundaries as much as metering devices. The rotor tip clearance governs particle attrition at the nip zone and the rate of fine-particle bypass under differential pressure. As clearance widens through wear, the downstream particle size distribution shifts in a pattern frequently misread as upstream process variation.
