METHOD FOR CLEANING AND DRYING ROTARY COMPONENTS Russian patent published in 2017 - IPC B08B5/02 B08B9/00 

FIELD: machine engineering.

SUBSTANCE: method for cleaning and drying rotary components, in which the component is brought to rotation and compressed air flow is directed to its surface. The rotation frequency of the component is set sufficient to remove small particles and moisture under the action of centrifugal force from the surface to be cleaned and is determined by the formula: . The cleaning and drying time is determined according to the dependence: where n is the rotational speed of the component, r/s; λ is the friction coefficient of impurities relative to the surface to be treated; g is the free fall acceleration, mm/s²; d is the diameter of the surface to be cleaned, mm, τ is required processing time, s; w_ν is specific energy of nondissociative adsorption of liquid molecules on the surface to be cleaned, J/kg. The nozzle, using which the compressed air is supplied in a direction opposite to the direction of component rotation, is placed at an angle to the surface to be cleaned, which has a maximum effect on surface cleaning.

EFFECT: improved quality of cleaning and drying the surface of the rotation bodies, providing more even surface cleaning, increased processing capacity due to the high intensity of cleaning, simplified practical implementation of the method.
