Hello Friends,
Please help me out with formulas for selecting & engineering Pneumatic Solid Product transfer application of :
a . Screw Conveyors
b . Rotary Blowers
c . Pipe lines
for Solids : Flour (bulk density 42 lb/ft3 ) & Sugar.
This is for a Biscuit Factory Dough Mixing Section where the requirement is:
Branch Feed line:
Mixing Lines Nos 1 thru 5 : 200-300 Flour kg/Batch & Sugar 60-105 Kg/batch.
Mixing line No:6 450-650 Flour kg/batch & Sugar 70-160 kg/batch
Total : Flour 2200-2500 Kg & Sugar 650-725 kg
It is intended to collect separately the Flour & Sugar into a hopper with screw conveyor and transfer to Mixing Section with Rotary Blower via a Main line , teeing off at each Mixing Line's individual hopper.
How do I size the Screw Conveyors & Blower for Flour (2500 kg) & separately for Sugar (725 kg)?
How do I engineer & size the Main line as well as branch lines for both these solid products?
Engineering sites for calculations will highly be appreciated.
Best Regards,
Solid Product Pneumatic Transfer
