Modeling of the operating modes of the washing system for milk pipelines of milking equipment with an air injector

V. Prуshliak, I. Babyn, I. Hunko

As a result of numerical simulation of the process of washing the milk line of the milking machine using the injector in the software package STAR-CCM + ,it was established the dependences of the rate of change of pressure and the change of the thickness of the layer of milk on the wall of the milk line at different values of its diameter from the working vacuum pressure, the duration of the injection stroke and the injection stroke the duration of the air injector pause. Solving the compromise problem, which reduces to minimizing the thickness of the milk layer on the wall of the milk pipeline and the rate of change of pressure for various values of the diameter of the milk pipeline, the corresponding rational parameters of the injector operating modes are obtained.
