Power match and experiment of tracked travelling system of continuous miner

A conclusion can be gotten by the analysis of special structure of track system in continuous miners that inner friction of vehicles was major factor to cause tractive performance change. A power match method was proposed for power match between structural parameters and driving system under three different working conditions. On-vehicle measurement was carried out. The results show that the difference between experimental and theoretical values is about 10%. This power match method can be used for integral design and selection of driving motor.
