Capacity of flight conveyor in tons/hr is given by (where, W & D = width and depth of flight respectively in metre V = speed of the conveyor, metre/second ρ = bulk density of material, kg/m3) ?
Correct answer: A. 3.6 W.D.V.ρ
- A. 3.6 W.D.V.ρ
- B. 3.6 W.D.V
- C. 3.6 W.V.ρ
- D. 3.6 D.V.ρ
Explanation
Volumetric throughput is WD V, and multiplying by bulk density gives kg/s; conversion from kg/s to tonnes per hour supplies the factor 3.6. Hence capacity is 3.6WDVρ tonnes per hour.
