MATHEMATIC SIMULATION OF CUTTING UNLOADING FROM THE BUNKER

Abstract

The peculiarities of cutting movement at unloading them from the hopper are described. The analysis of the scientific researches on bulk materials movement and bridging is given. To develop the mathematical model of cutting unloading the layer should be described as a pseudoliquid, that consists of discrete components (cuttings) and gaseous medium (air). The Navier-Stokes equation can be applied to the process of cutting unloading and velocity field. The equation of pseudoliquid motion is a nonlinear integral and differential equation. The initial and boundary conditions for speed of cutting movement are identified. As a result of research has been theoretically obtained a formula, that evaluates the rate of planting material unloading, the adequacy of which has already been partially tested in experimental experiments carried out by the authors on the way to creating an automatic planting machine.
