Abstract:
Regarding the evaluation of the reasonable throughput capacity of coal terminals adopting the new technology,this paper analyzes in depth the production operation process of coal terminals with multiple berths and few threads and the factors influencing their production capacity by investigating the planning and construction of an inland coal terminal project. Then,it employs the system simulation technology to build a logistics system model for the coal terminal adopting the loading and unloading technology and experimentally examines the relationships of the throughput capacity of the coal terminal arranged along the shore with the loading efficiency,the auxiliary operation time of the ships,and the berth shifting time of the ships. The results show that the multiple berths and few threads loading operation mode can meet the 14-million-t throughput demand of the terminal. Moreover,the ship arrival density is most closely related to the annual throughput,and the post-arrival auxiliary operation time and the berth shifting time have a large impact on the service level of the port and the utilization rate of the ship loaders.
