TECHNOLOGY AND APPLICATION OF POWDERED FOOD ADDITIVES FROM VEGETABLE RAW MATERIALS
DescriptionThe market for functional food products is continuously increasing and, according to analysts, by 2020 its share will reach 40% of all food products. The development of the healthy food has been gathering momentum in recent years, the search for non-traditional types of raw materials is constantly being conducted, and new recipes for products enriched with natural food additives are being created. In this regard, special attention is paid to the production and use of powdered food additives from plant raw materials. Theoretical significance and practical applicability of powder technologies in different years was substantiated by such famous scientists as Deryagin B.V., Donchenko L.V., Zimon A.D., Zubchenko A.V., Kasyanov G.I., Magomedov G.О., Paschenko L.P., Rebinder P.A., Tilesnik M.A., Yankhin E.D. In their opinion, using natural food additives, it is possible to obtain functional food products with specified chemical composition and properties. The objects of our research were apricot, grape seeds, pumpkin flesh, black currant and seabuckthorn berries, spinach, apples and flour from lowfat barley. In the course of the study, the effect of dispersity of the obtained powders on their antioxidant activity and frictional properties was studied. The expediency of introducing powders into the composition of multicomponent food products for enriching them with carbohydrates, vitamins and microelements is shown. The organoleptic evaluation of the produced powders showed that they have high taste values. The study of organoleptic and microbiological indices of products enriched with such powders indicates prolongation of their shelf life. As the main results of the study, we note the assessment of the chemical composition of the powders from the investigated objects, as well as the improvement of the technology of drying of plant raw materials with sparing technological regimes of its implementation

SOUND EFFECTS INFLUENCE ON THE OPERATOR’S ORGANISM IN PRODUCTION CONDITIONS
DescriptionHere we present a brief survey of noise effects on human’s organism in production conditions, including noise effects on operators of machines and technical devices. It is well known, that any biological organism exists in balance with its environment. However, noise effects being stress factors knock the operator of machines and technical devices out of the working rhythm and cause different kinds of health disorders such as blood pressure increase, fatigue, disorders of the central nervous system and gastrointestinal tract and the like. All this may lead to accident situations, reduction of labor productivity and quality of work. Frequently health disorders start with hearing impairment which leads to disorientation in the threedimension space and malfunction. It is because the hearing apparatus as biological system provides the organism with sensory information and ensures selfpreservation. In the noise conditions, these characteristics are conflict: on one hand, the hearing organ should possess high enabling capability to receive positive signals, and on the other hand, in order to adapt to the sound hearing and sensitivity will decrease. The duration of noise exposure and the number of years spent under influence of the noise are also of great importance. Thus, it is obvious that control of the noise and prevention of harmful effects of the noise on machine operators are important components of production process in the agrarian sector

Description
The article is devoted to the development of a compressor type ozonator. It describes the design of a high-productivity compressor ozone generator, which can be used for industrial decontamination of mixed feeds, water, milk, and in the system of presowing treatment of seeds. This construction allows generating ozone with high concentration to 5 g/m3 at high feed air or oxygen from the compressor station (up to 2000 l/min). The article describes the design of the basic elements of tubular ozone generator, examines the factors influencing the productivity of the ozonator. The proposed mathematical model allows calculating the productivity of the ozonator when considering multiple influencing factors. These factors take into account: the parameters of supply voltage, such as the magnitude and frequency of the supply voltage; the configuration and geometrical parameters of electrodes such as, the area of the electrodes, the configuration of the surface of the electrodes and distance between electrodes; parameters dielectric barrier; and the transported gas parameters such as volume, temperature, pressure and composition. Special attention is paid to the design of the electrodes made of woven wire mesh with mesh sizes from 1.5×1.5 to 2.0×2.0 mm. It is noted, that such electrodes allow obtaining the maximum productivity of an ozonator, and they do not lead to overheating of the dielectric barrier, and do not output down the generator. In the same way, the article presents the results of the mathematical modeling of ozone generator productivity while changing various factors

OPTIMIZATION OF OPERATION AT THE FOUR HARROW
DescriptionDisc tools are designed for the surface treatment of the soil, as well as for loosening and preparing the soil for planting, weed control and grinding residue, for seedbed preparation without preliminary plowing in the system of minimum tillage technology and after thick stem row crops harvesting. It implements a disk type implements include a disc mounted on the individual rack. Classical instruments of this type are made with a rigid stand mounting the cutter body to the frame. In the classical working body attachment scheme has a number of disadvantages. One of them is the lack of a safety element. The proposed version of the working body of the fastening using a spring strut has the following advantages. When zooming in on the disc obstacles (dense soil, bump, pit, stone), flexible disk drives backward, up, down or to the side (left, right) by the spring property (elasticity) of the curved rack. This design reduces the shock load on the bearing assembly, wherein the disc is returned to the original position by passing earth and crop residues without blockage. The purpose of structural changes was to reduce the energy intensity of the surface treatment process of the soil while improving reliability

MODELING DEEP BAR INDUCTION MOTORS FOR SUGAR FACTORY ELECTRICAL POWER SUPPLY SYSTEMS
DescriptionThe article is devoted to solving the urgent task, which is improving the accuracy of transient simulation modes of power supply systems of sugar factories. The material of the article is exploratory in nature, manifested in the fact that we have studied various mathematical models designed for the analysis of symmetric modes of deep bar induction motors. A number of the provisions of article have scientific novelty, which lies in the approach to the choice of the coordinate system for modeling deep bar induction motors. We have formulated the requirements for transient analysis method for deep bar induction motor. We have developed the mathematical models of high-voltage induction motors in different coordinate systems for the analysis of steady-state and transient modes of operation. Based on double-circuit rotor model of induction motor, an analytical expression for the frequency characteristic of the deep bar induction motor is obtained. As an example, we have calculated and presented real and imaginary parts of the frequency characteristic of the induction motor type 2АЗМ-2000 with slip s = 1. The mathematical models of induction motors allow using mathematical apparatus more efficiently to explore different symmetrical modes of engines. The study proposed to use transients in the power supply systems of sugar factories for the analysis. The authors suggest an approach to modeling, which can also be useful for modeling induction generators
