The additional operation of deaeration (compaction) of powders affects the quality of many products of chemical industries, the conditions for their delivery. Otherwise, energy consumption increases significantly. The aim of this work is the modeling of the deaeration of solid finely dispersed media in a gap with perforated hemispherical shapes on the surfaces of the shaft and conveyor belt within the framework of the mechanics of heterogeneous systems. A plane-deformation model is described, neglecting the forces of interphase interaction and taking into account the compressibility of a solid-particle-gas mixture without elastoplastic deformations. The model assumes consideration of the movement of (1) the components of the solid skeleton together with the carrying phase as a whole; (2) gas in an isothermal state through the pores of a finely dispersed material. This work is devoted to the study of part (a), i.e., behavior of the solid particle-gas system as a whole. The efficiency of the seal-deaerator is estimated using the obtained analytical dependencies for the main strength and speed indicators. The change in the degree of compaction of a spherical granule made of kaolin with given strength characteristics is investigated. It is shown that for the initial time interval up to 3.7⨯10−2 s, the growth of the porosity value relative to the horizontal coordinate along the conveyor belt is exponential and increases by a factor of 1.1. After eight such time intervals, the porosity values stabilize along the indicated coordinate with an increase of more than 1.4 times from the initial value.
