Experimental and theoretical investigation of drying technology and heat transfer on the contact cylindrical dryer

Abstract

An experimental and theoretical research on the technology and application of contact drying on the rotating cylinder dryer is presented. Results of measurements of drying parameters of drying starch solution in real working conditions of drying are analysed. Based on tests numerical values of the coefficient of heat transfer, heat transfer model, energy performance, curves of drying kinetics and drying kinetics equations are given, characteristic for drying technology of drying and other relevant parameters of the process.
