Abstract

Glavni cilj ovoga rada je provesti numerički proračun vertikalnog silosa za cement koji je svojom konstrukcijom i dimenzijama praktički identičan realnom silosu.
U prvom poglavlju općenito se opisuju silosi i procesi koji se odvijaju u njima te se deklarira problem koji je potrebno riješiti. Prikazan je način na koji su se odredile dimenzije silosa s obzirom na način protoka materijala pri ispuštanju iz silosa.
Zatim se objašnjava primjena metode konačnih elemenata te se opisuju konkretni elementi koji su se koristili pri analizi.
Prikazani su verifikacijski primjeri koji su poslužili kao jednostavniji primjeri za rješavanje problematike silosa kako bi se utvrdila ispravnost elemenata potrebnih za analizu samoga silosa.
U četvrtom poglavlju proveden je analitički proračun pojednostavljenog silosa te su rezultati uspoređeni s rezultatima koji su se dobili numeričkim putem. Na kraju se provodi analiza silosa s konstrukcijom koja je bliska realnoj te se daju rezultati analize i uspoređuju s rezultatima koji su se dobili kod pojednostavljenog silosa.

Abstract (english)

The main goal of this thesis is to carry out a numerical calculation of the vertical cement storage
silo, which is, by its dimensions and construction, practically identical to a real silo.
In the first chapter, silos and processes that take place in silos are explained as well as the
problem that needs to be solved. The method by which the silo dimensions were determined,
with respect to the manner of material flow during silo discharge, is shown.
In addition, the finite element method as well as the elements that were used in analysis of this
thesis are explained.
Verification examples that were used as simple examples for silo problematics solving are
shown in order to determine correctness of the elements required for silo analysis.
In the fourth chapter, an analytical calculation of the simplified silo was performed and the
results were compared with the results obtained by numerical method. Finally, an analysis of
the silo with construction similar to the real silo is performed and the results of the analysis, as
well as the results comparison with the simplified silo, are shown.
