EFFICIENCY INCREASE OF TRANSPORTATION OF DRY VEGETABLE BULK MATERIALS

Abstract

The main mechanism of vacuum transportation of vegetable bulk materials is considered. The peculiarity of this mechanism is energy-efficient up-to-date design of a liquid ring vacuum pump which allows to automatically correct the operating regime in case a transported material is changed. Methods for designing the system of vacuum transportation of dry vegetable bulk materials in the form of a continuous layer are suggested for the agro-industrial complex. The calculation of the vacuum transportation system for the public company “Rasskazovskoye” (the Tambov region) is made. The given device facilitates transportation of a great variety of dry vegetable materials with a high productivity and minimum energy consumption.
