The bow blowing device of a trailing suction hopper dredger is a key functional module for precise sediment delivery during dredging operations. Its core function is to deliver dredged material loaded in the mud compartment to a designated area through a high-pressure jet. This device integrates a high-pressure water pump system, a nozzle control system, and a positioning and guidance mechanism to generate a powerful mud jet stream at the bow of the vessel, enabling continuous, under-the-sea dredging and filling operations. In projects such as port construction, waterway dredging, and land reclamation, the bow blowing device precisely controls the distance and spread of sediment by adjusting the jet pressure and flow rate. It is suitable for medium- to short-distance transport of dredged material.
The design of this device considers the balance between efficiency and energy consumption. It features an adjustable nozzle to accommodate sediment mixtures of varying particle sizes and an intelligent flow control system for automated regulation of the delivery process.
