Study on the effect of grain moisture on grinding efficiency
Abstract
The quality of feed produced for cattle is one of the main factors influencing the efficiency of its keeping. The quality of the resulting feed depends to a large extent on the design features of the equipment, especially the mill. The purpose of this work is to analyze the system of grain grinding equipment and evaluate the efficiency of the developed grain grinding equipment in comparison with existing flour milling machines. A theoretical model of grinding grain material and its mathematical analysis of modeling are made, the influence of moisture on grinding, the influence on the size coefficient of the milled material is discussed. A comparative analysis of the grinding results of various researchers is analyzed. Options for grain grinding are discussed, based on the technological scheme for the production of grain and vegetable extrudate, by the method of "cold" extrusion of crushed grain and green plant mass (together). The considered variants of studies of the effect of moisture on grain grinding made it possible to draw appropriate conclusions.
