ABOUT THE MOVEMENT OF A MIXTURE OF COTTON AND AIR IN A CLOSED CHANNEL

Abstract

The article is devoted to the movement of a mixture of cotton and air when it is divided into two branches. The goal is to direct the air into the upper channel and the cotton into the lower channel. When the channel is divided into two networks, the occurrence of twists during the flow diversion can have negative consequences. Replacing the boundary of the curves with a curved, smooth curved arc relative to the current requires determining its shape and radius of curvature. The problem was solved using the theory of ideal fluids. Necessary formulas, numerical results were obtained and they can be used in the improvement of the pneumoseparator.
