Plug conveying along a vertical tube has been investigated through simulation, using a discrete element simulation approach for the granulate particles and a pressure field approach for the gas. The result is compared with an experiment. The dynamics of a plug are described by porosity, velocity and force profiles. Their dependence on simulation parameters provides an overall picture of plug conveying.
