Abstract

With the increasing application of bulk cargo transfer station in ports, it is one of key problems to effectively solve the wear problem of the chute system and to reduce the maintenance cost of port equipment and improve the production efficiency. Taking the actual wear of the chute as an example, this paper analyzed the causes of the wear of the chute system used in the bulk cargo transfer station based on the discrete element method (DEM), and the problems of the original chute design was revealed. On this basis, the optimization scheme of chute was put forward from two aspects of reducing the wear degree and facilitating the replacement of lining plate.
