MATHEMATICAL MODEL OF SEQUENTIAL FEEDERS FOR CENTRALIZED LUBRICATION SYSTEMS

The paper presents a system of differential and algebraic equations governing the operation of a sequential feeder. The block diagram of realization of equations that constitute a mathematical model of a sequential feeder is given. It allows making analysis of operating characteristics of sequential feeders and lubrication systems based on them in the Simulink system of modelling dynamic processes. The results of full-scale tests which confirm the adequacy of the mathematical model developed are presented.
