Performance enhancing of transporting grains from a silo to a mill by using transporting tubes’s

Abstract

The study aims to improve milling performance in light of an engineering problem: the unavailability of friction-resistant pipes locally, leading to rapid corrosion. Due to high import costs, a local solution was proposed by increasing pipe thickness and reinforcing bends. A theoretical and practical investigation was conducted using stainless steel pipes, with real-time grain flow measurements taken from the mill to evaluate efficiency.
