Short summary
Optimizing the structure of the dust extraction port is the key to effectively improving the operational performance of the sweeper. CFD methods are used to analyze the influence of parameters on the sweeping effect in combination with a gas–solid two-phase flow model. The data set is established with the help of orthogonal test methods, and a BP neural network is used to fit the structural parameters and evaluation indexes.
