Screw Feeder Calculation

This document contains calculations for a screw feeder system for feeding fuel into a boiler. It provides specifications for the screw feeder such as screw diameter, pitch, shaft diameter, motor RPM and chain wheel sizes. It also provides data on the fuel properties of rice husk and coal. The calculations determine the fuel consumption rate, feeding volume, screw RPM, number of feeders required and total feeding volume provided to achieve the boiler heat load requirement.
