In order to clarify the influence of geometric parameters of tapered pipeline on particle flow characteristics in pneumatic conveying, numerical simulation was conducted for horizontal pipelines with 5 kinds of taper ratio and taper length by adopting CFD-DEM coupling method. Influence of geometric parameters of taper ratio and taper length on particle velocity, pressure loss and Froude number in tapered pipeline was investigated. The results show that tapered pipe can reduce particle velocity. As taper length and taper ratio increase, particle velocity increases first and then decreases. And the tapered pipe can also reduce pressure drop in pipeline. As taper ratio and taper length increase, pressure loss in pipeline increases. The higher the taper ratio, the smaller the Froude number in tapered pipe is. As taper length increases, the Froude number decreases more slowly.
