An Experimental Research of Sanding in Wheel/Rail Contact
Machatka, Martin ; Hruška, Marek (referee) ; Omasta, Milan (advisor)
Presented master's thesis is focused on the experimental research of the sanding parameters in order to improve adhesion in the contact between wheel and rail. Sanding is the application of the sanding material directly in the wheel/rail contact. It is still common, most effective and traditional way how to deal with low adhesion problem, which is mainly caused by environmental contaminants. Research is important for the better understanding of the sanding process and also provides data, which are necessary for it's optimization and efficiency improvement. Newly developed twin-disc machine was used to carry out the presented experimental research. The influence of common contaminants on the adhesion is investigated, considering various operating parameters. Different amount of the applied sand is used to increase adhesion in the contaminated contact at various slip and rolling speed. Results show, that there is the amount of the sand, from which no significant adhesion increase occur. Obtained findings and the results presented in this thesis will be used to optimize sanding system, which will contribute to reduce cost associated with sanding and low adhesion.
Adjustable belt conveyor - driving head
Machatka, Martin ; Kašpárek, Jaroslav (referee) ; Malášek, Jiří (advisor)
The aim of the present bachelor thesis was to design a driving head for an adjustable belt conveyor intended for brown coal transportation. According to the required parameters for the belt conveyor, functional calculation was carried out, technical parameters of the driving head were defined and its construction proposed. The entire drawing of the designed driving head and essential detailed drawings are included in this thesis.
