Abstract:

In order to meet the demand of precise and quantitative fertilization in modern agriculture, this paper obtains the reason why the screw fertilizer ejector can not realize uniform fertilizer discharge through theoretical analysis. a new type of fertilizer discharge device based on the principle of screw extrusion conveying with full filling of fertilizer is designed, and the parameters affecting the uniformity of fertilizer discharge were obtained through theoretical analysis. The installation inclination and length of fertilizer outlet were taken as the test factors, and the variation coefficient of fertilizer uniformity and the average speed of fertilizer particles were taken as the test indexes. The quadratic general rotation combination test with two factors and five levels is designed, the results showed that the length of fertilizer outlet and the installation angle of fertilizer outlet had a very significant effect on the variation coefficient of fertilizer uniformity (P<0.01) and (0.01<P<0.05), respectively. The installation angle of fertilizer outlet and the length of fertilizer outlet had a very significant effect on the average velocity of fertilizer particles (P<0.01), when the installation inclination of the fertilizer outlet is 40° and the length of the fertilizer outlet is 105 mm. The variation coefficient of fertilizer uniformity ≤10% and the average speed of fertilizer particles ≥15.5 mm/s can be obtained. The relative errors of bench test and simulation test are 2.75% and 1.75% respectively, the verification results are consistent with the simulation results. Under different rotating speeds, the uniformity variation coefficient of extrusion screw fertilizer discharge is 32.91% lower than that of single screw fertilizer discharge, and the amount of fertilizer discharged in a single cycle at different rotating speeds is 6.70% lower, the optimized fertilizer ejector has good fertilizer uniformity and small fertilizer loss. This study can provide reference for the optimal design of fertilizer distribution apparatus with screw.
