Theoretical substantiation of the similarity criteria for a continuous grain loader with a screw working body
The article deals with the theoretical substantiation of the design and operating parameters of a continuous grain loader with a screw working body. On the basis of the theory of similarity and dimensions, similarity criteria were obtained. They relate the diameter of the working body to the translational and angular velocity. When one of the parameters is changed, the obtained similarity criteria allow one to justify the values of other parameters.
