Abstract


The article deals with the issue of the experimental determination of vector projections values of airflow velocities normal to the loading gate plane of the milling and rotary snowblower feeder. An experimental setup that allows the physical measurements of airflow rates in the loading gate area is described. Based on the results of the measurements obtained with the use of the test bench, an assessment is made of the distribution nature for the values of the projections of airflow rate vectors over the loading gate area. Regression equations of airflow rate vector projections are presented considering the angular rotation rate of the feeder cutter for individual points in the loading gate plane. The mathematical model description, the results of the numerical simulation of the airflow movement in the loading gate area and the comparative analysis of the experimental studies results are also presented.
