الوصف: Abstract The low loading rate of the thin coal seam shearer drum is a severe obstacle to the efficient mining of thin seam resources, and the auxiliary drum loading through the cowl is an effective measure to alleviate this situation. However, the working mechanism of the coal cowl still remains unclear. In this paper, with the help of the discrete element method and the modeling experiment method, the effects of coal cowl’s offset distance, tilt angle and wrap angle on the coal loading rate under different loading modes of the drum are investigated; and the significance of various factors and their interactions to the drum coal loading rate is explored by designing response surface experiments. The findings show that a monotonous negative correlation between the offset distance of the coal cowl and the coal loading rate is identified, and that a smaller offset distance can effectively improve the coal loading rate of the drum. The conveying torque is significantly increased, easily inducing the drum choking, coal recycling coal over-crushing. Along with the increasing tilt angle, the rate of ejection loading decreases monotonically, and the rate of pushing loading increases first and then decreases. Coal loading rate is weakly affected by changes in coal cowl’s wrap angle. The results of response surface analysis reveal that the most significant factors affecting the drum’s coal loading rate are tilt angle and offset distance in ejection and pushing loading modes, respectively. The conclusions drawn here offer implications for improving the coal loading performance of the thin coal seam shearer drum, as well as certain guidance on the optimal design of coal cowl parameters.
