Feeding head of relative rotary based on EDEM+FLUENT
Abstract
This article takes an efficient feeding head as the research object to study its work mechanism and perform dynamics analysis of the materials in the feeding head. In addition, this article obtains the physical prototype of a three-dimensional model and the feeding surface equation through the surface data of the feeding head and investigates different unfold lines of the feeding surface. In addition, this article recommends a curve equation of the feeding head under different friction coefficients through EDEM + FLUENT simulation analysis and conducts a research on transport and feeding quantity to deduce the equation for the transport quantity of the feeding head. Finally, the verity of the preceding curve equation and transport quantity is confirmed, which has important guiding significance for the feeding head design.
