# Industrial Specification: Slag Cooling Conveyor

## 1. Technical Definition
A conveyor system designed to transport and simultaneously cool hot slag from metallurgical processes.

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **0.5-2.0 m/s conveyor speed, 800-1200°C initial slag temperature, 50-200°C discharge temperature**. Failure boundary: **Conveyor belt material exceeds 250°C glass transition temperature (for silicone rubber belts) or 400°C for steel belts, cooling water flow drops below 10 L/min per meter of conveyor length**, Mechanism: **Thermal degradation of belt polymers via Arrhenius kinetics (k = A·e^(-Ea/RT)) where activation energy Ea = 80-120 kJ/mol for silicone rubber, or thermal stress exceeding yield strength σ_y = 250 MPa for steel belts at ΔT &gt; 300°C**.

### 2.1 Analytical Physics Model
Governed by the **Tractive Power & Resistance Model**:

> **Primary Equation**: $P = \frac{F \cdot v}{\eta}$  
> **Engineering Impact**: Ensures motor torque capacity exceeds operational inertia.

| Symbol | Variable Definition | Localized Reference |
