Abstract
The external milling vertical rice mill (EMVRM) is one of the new rice milling process equipment. The grains moving and interaction mechanism are basic points for milling, rice blade-sand bar spacing H, sieve structure are important structural parameters need considering. The EMVRM 3D model and DEM contact working model are established. The rice blade spacing H and sieve structure effect on grains motion and interaction in is analyzed. Grains motion velocity and density in milling chamber gradually reduced along axial flow direction. The milling chamber grains average motion velocity difference decreases with spacing H increasing. The grain normal and tangential force show down parabolic relation with axial distance from inlet. The sieve direction has little effect on grain motion velocity and force. Normal and tangential force in milling chamber reduced downward along the axial. The research provides practical guidance for EMVRM mill design.
期刊介绍:
Powder Technology is an International Journal on the Science and Technology of Wet and Dry Particulate Systems. Powder Technology publishes papers on all aspects of the formation of particles and their characterisation and on the study of systems containing particulate solids. No limitation is imposed on the size of the particles, which may range from nanometre scale, as in pigments or aerosols, to that of mined or quarried materials. The following list of topics is not intended to be comprehensive, but rather to indicate typical subjects which fall within the scope of the journal's interests:
Formation and synthesis of particles by precipitation and other methods.
Modification of particles by agglomeration, coating, comminution and attrition.
Characterisation of the size, shape, surface area, pore structure and strength of particles and agglomerates (including the origins and effects of inter particle forces).
Packing, failure, flow and permeability of assemblies of particles.
Particle-particle interactions and suspension rheology.
Handling and processing operations such as slurry flow, fluidization, pneumatic conveying.
Interactions between particles and their environment, including delivery of particulate products to the body.
Applications of particle technology in production of pharmaceuticals, chemicals, foods, pigments, structural, and functional materials and in environmental and energy related matters.
For materials-oriented contributions we are looking for articles revealing the effect of particle/powder characteristics (size, morphology and composition, in that order) on material performance or functionality and, ideally, comparison to any industrial standard.
