COMPUTER SIMULATION IN PALM KERNEL CRACKING MACHINE DESIGN
Subject area: Science,Engineering and Technology · Area of research: Mechanical Engineering
Abstract
Computer simulation is the reproduction of the behavior of a system using a computer to simulate the outcomes of a mathematical model associated with said system. Since they allow to check the reliability of chosen mathematical models, computer simulations have become a useful tool for the mathematical modeling of many natural systems in physics (computational physics), astrophysics, climatology, chemistry, biology and manufacturing, human systems in economics, psychology, social science, health care and engineering . Simulation of a system is represented as the running of the system's model. It can be used to explore and gain new insights into new technology and to estimate the performance of systems too complex for analytical solutions An improve cracker is needed for the cracking of palm kernel in large scale to satisfy this yearning. The process of palm kernel oil needs a nut shell cracking which is the most critical and delicate aspect which is labour intensive if done manually. The individuals involved in the manual cracking endanger their selves of inadvertently hitting their fingers with the impact stone. The palm kernel cracking machine is power driven and it is constructed so as to increase efficiency of cracking the nuts, reduce accidents during operation and minimize the expelling of time during the process). Due to the continuous increase in demand for palm kernel nuts for soap, cream, and cooking oil, there is need to produce it with local source materials ,As a result of researching innovation have be made to solve the problem of traditional method by using mechanized type. our aim is to ensure that the product can be manufactured at a feasible cost, presented followed by the computer-based area of virtual manufacturing for simulating manufacturing operations, Simulation analysis of the models and design was carried out using Autodesk inventor professional application
