• It was assumed that the machine investment cost relates to its weight

Operational performance
• The performance at dry bulk terminals is generally expressed in the
total time that ships and trains spend in the port
• The port time is the sum of the waiting time and service time
• The ships waiting time relates to:
• Interarrival time distribution
• Carrier tonnage distribution
• The ship (un)loader utilization
• Mean service rate
• Mean arrival rate

5. Case: stockyard layout design for
an import terminal
Stockyard layout (re)design
25
Main requirements:
• Import terminal with an annual throughput of 37 [Mt/y], 21% bypass
(no storage and handling by stockyard machines)
• Required stockyard area: 92 [ha]
• Seaside: bulk carriers, landside: trains
• Interarrival time distribution seaside and landside: NED
• Carrier tonnage distribution: based on historical data (avg. 101 [kt])
• Train tonnage distribution : uniform distributed between 2 and 4 [kt]
• Stockyard machine efficiency: 0.55 [-]
• 4 unloaders at seaside and 4 loaders at landside
• Average seaside’s port time (Wss): 3 days and average landside’s port
time (Wls): 0.5 day
• Blending of coal: 1.7 [Mt/y]
• 28 different grades of bulk materials must be stored separately
Stockyard layout (re)design
26
Step 1:
Determine the number of stockyard lanes (nl) and dimension the
stockyard lanes (length Ll and width w).
• Assume a machine’s boom length (lb) of 60 meter and use 10 meter as
distance from the machine’s centerline to the stockyard lane (p).
• Assume that the lane’s length (Ll) must be in the range between 1,000
and 1,500 meter
• Number of stockyard lanes must be an even number to realize
complete archetypes. Calculate the number of archetypes using the
following equation:
A  n l L l l b  p 
• An outcome is nl = 14, Ll = 1,315 [m] and w = 50 [m]
Stockyard layout (re)design
27
Step 2:
Determine the required machine capacity based on Wss ≤ 3 days and Wls
≤ 0.5 day for both archetypes.

• Calculate the stockyard machine’s weight (w) based on the determined
stacking and reclaiming capacities
• Investment cost of the stockyard machine(s): IC

Step 4:
Design the blending bed with associated machine types.
• Future: high-quality coal will probably become scarce thus install
stacker and reclaimer combination which is able to realize the highest
bed blending ratio
• Blending bed dimensions: assume coal-fired power plant’s own storage
of 5 days and use two blending beds for simultaneously stacking and
reclaiming.

Summary
• Three main stockyard functions: storage, blending and homogenizing
• Main characteristics of stockyard machines were presented
• The effective capacity ratio for bucket wheel reclaimers differs per
reclaiming method; a method has been provided.
• Different combinations of stacking methods and reclaimers result in
specific bed blending effect ratios.
• A selection procedure was introduced to select single-purpose or
multi-purpose machines for the storage of bulk materials
• For a specific case, the stockyard layout was designed
• Future work: Design of the network of belt conveyors
