# Industrial Specification: Conveyor System (within tunnel)

## 1. Technical Definition
A mechanical system that transports materials through the drying/evaporation tunnel at controlled speeds.

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **0.1-2.0 m/s belt speed, 50-500 kg/m linear load capacity**. Failure boundary: **Belt tensile stress exceeding 25 MPa (Nylon-reinforced PVC), bearing temperature exceeding 120°C (grease-lubricated), motor winding temperature exceeding 155°C (Class F insulation)**, Mechanism: **Belt fatigue failure due to cyclic bending stress at pulleys (σ_max = E × ε, where ε = belt thickness/pulley diameter), bearing seizure from lubricant thermal breakdown at Arrhenius rate k = A×exp(-Ea/RT), motor insulation degradation by thermal aging following Arrhenius-Weibull model**.

### 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 |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| F | Total Tractive Resistance | Engineering Constant |
