Analysis of the cutting machine movement across the field when harvesting dead crops

The article is devoted to the analysis of various types of cutting machine movement across the field when harvesting dead crops. It is noted that despite improvements in the design of the cutting machine, the problem of grain loss remains unresolved. A classification of the types of cutting device movement according to the movement nature is proposed, which can serve as a basis for substantiating agrotechnical requirements for the quality of soil surface treatment

The effect of pipeline parameters of machines for applying liquid complex fertilizers on the drip-air mixture quality

The article is devoted to the study of a drip-air mixture flow through pipelines, namely, the determination of total pressure losses based on known values of the flow rates of the constituent phases or the loss coefficients of the constituent phases. The authors conclude that the conditions for introducing the drip-air mixture into the pipes do not affect the size of the flow structure stabilization area. It has been found that for small values of the air and liquid flow rates, the diameter and length of the pipeline, as well as its position, have a very significant effect on the flow structure of the two-phase mixture and on the average diameter of the droplets. For each pipeline length and diameter, there is a pulsation flow mode only at certain values of the air and liquid flow rates (Gv/Gl), moreover, the larger the diameter and length of the pipeline, the later the pulsation flow mode occurs. At high values Gv/Gl, the position, length, and diameter of the pipeline do not have a noticeable effect on the flow shape, the flow has a finely dispersed structure, pressure pulsation is practically absent

Increasing the life of plunger and barrel assembly of high pressure fuel pumps

In order to identify the regularities of further increasing the efficiency of transport and technological machines, it is of interest to consider the issues of determining the impact of their design and technological parameters on the quality of running-in and the operability of fuel pumps. The article analyzes the influence of the initial operating modes and the lubricating medium on the quality of running-in and subsequent performance of high-pressure fuel pumps. On the basis of theoretical studies, equations were obtained to determine the unbalanced radial force acting on the plunger and fuel leaks in the plunger pair. These expressions make it possible to establish the dependence of the specific pressure in the plunger and barrel assembly both on the design and technological parameters of the pump
