# Industrial Specification: Material Transfer Vehicle Interface

## 1. Technical Definition
Interface system connecting an asphalt paver to a material transfer vehicle for continuous asphalt supply

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **0.5-2.0 MPa hydraulic pressure, 15-35°C asphalt temperature, 0.1-0.3 m/s conveyor speed**. Failure boundary: **Hydraulic pressure exceeding 2.5 MPa causes seal extrusion, asphalt temperature below 10°C induces thermal contraction cracking, conveyor speed above 0.4 m/s creates material segregation**, Mechanism: **Seal failure occurs via extrusion at 2.5 MPa due to elastomer yield strength (Shore A 70 durometer, 10 MPa tensile strength). Thermal fatigue cracking initiates at ΔT=25°C due to coefficient of thermal expansion mismatch (steel: 12×10⁻⁶/°C, asphalt: 60×10⁻⁶/°C)**.

### 2.1 Analytical Physics Model
Governed by the **Darcy-Weisbach Pressure Drop**:

> **Primary Equation**: $\Delta P = f \cdot \frac{L}{D} \cdot \frac{\rho v^2}{2}$  
> **Engineering Impact**: Critical for sizing CIP (Clean-In-Place) pump heads.
