Abstract
Purpose: to develop a methodology for calculating jet devices used in hydromechanization for the development of soils and cleaning reservoirs from sediments using the results of our own research and the theoretical and empirical dependences presented in the literature. Materials and Methods: on the example of a diagram of an annular two-surface jet ejectors with increased energy characteristics, a method has been developed and the calculation of the relative and actual geometric and hydraulic parameters of its elements is shown for use as a suction tip on suction dredgers at the necessity to increase the suction height and development depth of centrifugal dredgers. Results. Based on the initial data (the values of the hydraulic resistance coefficients of the inlet section, diffuser, nozzle, the distance from the nozzle edge to the beginning of the mixing chamber, mixer, operating parameters of the pump – pump head and flow rate, pipeline diameters), the pulp density in the suction nozzle, the weight coefficient of ejection, geometric characteristic, relative optimum head, actual heads of the jet apparatus and pump-blower, volumetric total flow, volumetric consistency of the pulp in the suction pipeline, performance over the ground, actual dimensions. Conclusions: the developed methodology will allow calculating the optimal dimensions of jet enjector of a new design and developing a design for the suction tip of a suction dredger for various in pressure, flow rate and development depth of operational options for removing bottom sediments in water bodies.
