Area of belt conveyor
public
Area required for a belt conveyor with known mass flow rate and bulk material density.
Input
Bulk material density
$ \rho_{bm} = 769 \; \; kg/m^3 $
Capacity
$ Q = 720 \; \; kg/h $
Result
Required area
$$ A_{conv_{mass}} = {{( Q \cdot 10 ^ 6 ) \over \left({ v_{conv} \cdot 3600 \cdot \rho_{bm} }\right)}} \; \; , {mm ^ 2} $$
