Simulation of the Quality Criterion of a Mixture in a Drum-Belt Apparatus

详细

A method is proposed for calculating the inhomogeneity coefficient in the workspace of a drum-belt mixer of bulk components with brush elements in a three-stage batch mixing method with non-uniform proportioning. The method is based on a stochastic model of the motion of rarefied particle flows following interaction with flexible elements fixed along a helical line on the surface of the mixer drums. The principal coefficients affecting the quality of a bulk mixture are analyzed in the form of combined structural and regime complexes of parameters of the mixer and the characteristics of the physical and mechanical state of the mixed media are analyzed. The results obtained can be used to develop an engineering technique for calculating the parameters of a new drum-belt mixer of friable components.
