STRUCTURAL IMPROVEMENT OF A MOBILE PNEUMATIC TRANSPORT SYSTEM FOR EFFICIENT LONG-DISTANCE COTTON CONVEYING

Abstract

Efficient transportation of cotton over long distances is a critical requirement in modern cotton processing and storage operations. Conventional conveying methods often lead to fiber damage, material loss, and high energy consumption. This paper investigates the structural improvement of a mobile pneumatic transport system designed for the efficient long-distance transportation of cotton. The study focuses on optimizing the system’s конструктив (structural) design, airflow distribution, pipeline configuration, and mobility features. Analytical and experimental results demonstrate that the improved pneumatic transport system ensures stable cotton flow, reduces fiber damage, and increases transportation efficiency while maintaining energy effectiveness.
