Abstract
The article deals with the use of mathematical modeling to reduce the power consumption of processes and equipment. Modeling results allows refining calculating methodology of the processing equipment most important elements: extruder and kneading machine. The most important design characteristics of the extruder are identified: screw cutting step, helix angle, axial, radial and transverse loads, bending and twisting moments, shear and tangensalnye stresses acting on the most loaded spiral auger. Also, the most important design parameters of kneader and its working body are defined: kneader performance and drive power; normal, axial and circumferential forces applied to the blade; complex shape blade mass center. The paper presents the design formulas, diagrams of forces and load distribution, equipment calculating procedure.
