    Abstract

    VAN DYK, D.J.  and  PRETORIUS, L.. Analysis of dynamic effects in a rotary kiln system used for iron production. R&D j. (Matieland, Online) [online]. 1995, vol.11, pp.12-20. ISSN 2309-8988.

    In this article a rotary kiln used in the iron manufacturing industry is modelled by means of two mathematical models. The macro model simulates the dynamic behaviour of the electric drive, burden and kiln. The micro model is used for a detail analysis of the drive train of the rotary kiln with emphasis on the girth gear and pinion in contact. Both models have been verified with the experimental results.
