FiledFebruary 4th, 2016Abstract The purposes of this document, is to describe how we will pro- ceed in experiments that are designed to study the flow beha- viour of RFID sensor platforms in silos and in the pellet trans- portation chain. Experiments will be carried out at LKAB/ME- FOS. Variables such as the detection rate and abilities to con- trol the experimental environment will determine the sizes and details of these experiments. The purpose of this document is also to study the readability due to long distances and unknown radio environment, uncertain orientation of transponders, mech- anical and electrical interference, and separation due to size and density. Sensor survival in high temperatures is the most challenging part and will be tested in static ovens at LKAB/ME- FOS.
