After chopping the green mass with a cutting drum in forage harvesters, it must be loaded into a vehicle. A silo pipeline is used for this. It directs the movement of the crushed mass in the appropriate direction. The trajectory of particle movement is determined by the shape of a flat curve – the axis of the silo pipeline. The importance of the regularity of changes in the curvature of the axis of the silo pipeline or the trajectory of particle movement is shown analytically in the article. A differential equation of the movement of a single particle on the surface of the silo pipeline has been formulated. It is shown that the differential equation has an analytical solution for an axis in the form of a circle. For other cases, numerical methods should be used. A comparative analysis of the transportation process of crushed mass in silo pipelines with different axis shapes was made. Solutions of differential equations are accompanied by corresponding graphical illustrations.
