circular-diameter smoothness is, I can proceed or trash this idea.
IANAE, but I think you want laminar flow on the way in. The chips/dust
filter down through the layers of air by gravity to slide on the surface
into the receiver. This would serve to protect their downward movement
from the turbulence of the upward exhaust air.
Or as laminar as you can manage.
For pneumatic conveyance you want turbulent flow all the
way into the collector. Otherwise material accumulates
along the bottom inside surface of the duct. Once in the
hopper, you want the EXIT flow to be a slow as possible,
laminar if possible so as to carry as little material out of
the hopper as possible.
