The article presents the results of a study of a high-performance grain cleaning machine for the preliminary cleaning of grain pile with a closed aspiration system.The fl ow regimes of the "air-grain pile" mixture determined by the Reynolds number and the bulk concentration of particles are established.As a result of the modeling, further directions for improving pneumatic systems of grain cleaning machines were determined: the cleaning effi ciency of the Е 0 fraction of pure grain from light impurities, shriveled and crushed grain reaches 82%, the output cleanliness of the grain was 93.7%, and the loss of full grain to waste P z = 0,017%.The average speed of the air fl ow in the separating channel is U = 7.12 m/s, its coeffi cient of variation across the width of the separating channel is v = 12,7%.The results of the experimental data confi rmed the adequacy of using mathematical modeling of the air fl ow in the pneumatic system of a grain cleaning machine to substantiate the basic parameters of the pneumatic system.
