摘要
This paper is concerned with screw conveyors with fully enclosed tubular casings. The throughput, torque and power are significantly influenced by the vortex motion of the bulk solid being conveyed. The vortex motion, together with the degree of fill, govern the volumetric efficiency and, hence, the throughput. This, in turn, influences the torque, power and conveying efficiency. A theory is presented to predict the performance of screw conveyors of any specified geometry. The application to conveyor design is discussed.
