Review Design Analysis and Optimization of Screw Conveyor for Asphalt Application: A Review

摘要

Screw conveyors are extensively used in a industry for transporting and materials along with distances. We are improving the capacity of screw conveyor by including the initial and actual design.(9TPH to 7.8TPH) They are very imperial transporting instrument for dry particulate solids, giving good output. design have tended to heavily on experiential performance data. In screw conveyor all over performance is dependent on the operating conditions the screw speed is in rotational, inclination of the screw conveyor; and the volumetric fill level of the bulk material. In that review paper we improve the capacity of screw conveyor by using computational fluid dynamics analysis (CFDA) also improve the tensional strength of screw shaft. We are reducing the overweight of conveyor from 52kg/set to 40-45 kg/set.The predictions of screw conveyor performance in terms of variations of particle speeds, energy dissipation, mass flow rate and power consumption, due to changes in the operating conditions. While the shape of the feed opening is not critical when dealing with free-flowing materials it has a very strong effect on performance when fibrous materials are being fed into the screw. The conveyor is powered by an electric motor by using a V belt connection.
