Size segregation will lead to stratification of a particle system. At present, people have not fully understood the segregation mechanism. In this work, we have studied the size segregation behavior of two-component disk particles in chute flows. The effects of particle size ratio η, particle density ρ, static friction coefficient μ and chute angle α on size segregation are discussed. We use the discrete element method to simulate and calculate the force of disk large particles during segregation. Results show that the 'squeeze expulsion' mechanism plays a key role in the size segregation of a disk particle flow. We establish a physical model of 'squeeze expulsion' of disk particles and obtain the conditions for the formation of 'squeeze expulsion' mechanism. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
