DEPENDENCES OF ENERGY INDICATORS FROM PARAMETERS AND MODES OF WORK OF COSMOKES, FODDER AND GRAIN COMPLEXES

Summary. Results of the analysis of test reports of mowers forage harvesters, the harvesters which are carried out on 10 stations for test of farm vehicles from 2000 to 2017 are presented in article. It is established that height of a cut of grain harvesters with the segment cutting devices on average is 67 % less, than at mowers with the segment and rotational cutting devices. Working speed at mowers with the rotational cutting devices on average is 27 % higher, than at mowers with the segment cutting devices and grain harvesters with the segment cutting devices though the working width of capture is 2,5 times less, than at grain harvesters with the segment cutting devices. It in turn for 25 % increases productivity in 1 hour of the main time (on 1 m of width of capture of the harvester). Respectively specific fuel consumption on unit of the performed work (on 1 m of width of capture of the harvester) at rotational devices is higher on average for 63 %. Dependences of specific fuel consumption and working speed on parameters and operating modes of the segment and rotational cutting devices, productivities of mowers, forage and combine harvesters are received.
