Abstract :
The paper presents the algorithm for speed control of belt conveyors, in terms of optimal energy consumption. The algorithm is based on principle “minimal speed means minimum power”. The minimal speed is calculated as a ratio of transported capacity of bulk material and maximum possible material cross section on the belt.
