Application of Low-Frequency Mechanical Vibrations for Development of Highly Efficient Continuous Extraction Equipment

Abstract

Research results of the regularities of pulsating turbulent flows distribution generated with the transport elements of a vibrating extractor for solid-liquid systems with a small difference in phase densities in a non-flowing liquid medium are presented. The experimental results in the entire investigated range of hydrodynamic operating modes of the apparatus are summarized by the dependences by which it becomes possible to determine the distance between vibro-mixing devices, the dimensions of the apparatus, the height of the unloading device for removing the meal, to choose the design of the transporting open element of the plate, to optimize and scale the process.
