Analysis of a Transfer Chute using the Ansys Rocky Software
This tutorial explores a complex transfer chute geometry used to handle bulk materials using Ansys Rocky™, a particle dynamics simulation software. Undertake an analysis to determine the point the system reaches steady state and perform a wear analysis by viewing wear intensities present on surfaces. Further explore central loading of material on a receiving conveyor with different particle sizes and material options, if desired. This tutorial is part of a series focused on exploring key aspects of bulk material handling using the Ansys Rocky Tool. It is recommended to follow all tutorials in order to gain the full understanding of these systems.
