Research on transportation of metallurgical slag of tippers in the conditions of southeast of Ukraine

Research aim - to produce conclusions that will result in the increase of the productivity and reduction of specific expense of fuel of tippers, while taking into account the tippers operational characteristics at transportation of metallurgical slags and products of their processing.. As a result of research the analysis of tippers of BelAZ-7540 exploitation was conducted on a metallurgical enterprise in the climactic conditions of southeast of Ukraine,. In addition, factors contributing to the efficiency of the tippers use have been distinguished and examined. It was found that the efficiency of the use of tippers, namely the studied change of expense of fuel is contingent on the work of tippers. Thus, in the process of research, there was the educed periodicity of oscillation of expense of fuel of tippers. The application of the research findings is that appropriate procedures are recommended in terms of the rational use of fuel, in particular, in the process of determination, planning, setting of norms of the necessary amount of fuel, which is one of the most essential and actual tasks for modern metallurgical enterprises today.
