| Abstract [eng] |
The goal of project is to design the active shafted screw feeder model to analysis its deformation, stress, possibilities of pelletized bio-fuel jamming in its hopper and performance using its mass flow rate. The implementation of new design three different axle free screw feeder used in this project in order to reduce its deformation and stress values when compared active shafted screw feeder. Two hopper designs are used for analysis of pellets jamming with initial active shafted screw feeder. The hopper with less jamming is considered for further research by assembling the rest three different axle free screw feeder and jamming analysis are done. The mass flow rate of the pelletized particle is calculated for all screws used in this project. From results it shown that the two out of three newly designed screw feeder are efficient in performance, less deformation and stress values are reduced when compared to the existing shafted screw feeder. |
