Experimental study on vegetation removing from irrigation channels

Abstract

The parameters of the process of vegetation removing from the water surface have been justified. An experiment was conducted to determine the strength of the screw-type tool and matching the most appropriate parameters. It was established that the channel clean-up quality depends on the screw diameter. It was also investigated the influence of the screw rotation speed on the channel clean-up quality. The dependence of the cleanup quality on the flight screw pitch has been determined.
