Use of a two-parameter Weibull distribution for the description of the particle size effect on dust minimum explosible concentration by Asma Abousrafa (17991313)

“…This is consistent with the initial conclusion where the MEC increases with increasing particle size. The paper discusses the advantages of using such an approach to describe the effect of particle size distribution on dust explosion properties but also shows that using only a median or mean of a particle size distribution to describe MEC may be misleading, especially if a sample represented by <i>d</i>_<em>50</em> as a coarse distribution contains a long tail of fine particles.…”
