Abstract |
|
This paper represents an overview of a storage hopper used for rice mill industries. Also this paper includes design of a pyramid shaped rice hopper. Generally for different rice mill, there are different types of hopper present in market based on different size and shape. So while selecting any hopper as per requirement, the different design parameters of hopper are need to be taken into consideration. The relationships obtained through requirement were used together with other relevant expressions for determination of the hopper design parameters such as exit size, mass flow rate, approximate bin size, hopper angle, wall friction angle, flow factor, flow function and different forces acting on hopper surface. The design procedure used for hopper is determined by considering only rice as a storage matter. |
