Capacity of Screw Conveyor Calculator
Capacity of Screw Conveyor Formula
Capacity (C):
C=(D2−d2)⋅P⋅N36.6
Where:
- C is the capacity of the screw conveyor, in cubic feet per hour (ft³/hr).
- D is the screw diameter, in inches (in).
- d is the shaft diameter, in inches (in).
- P is the screw pitch, in inches (in), normally equal to D.
- N is the shaft speed, in revolutions per minute (rpm).
