Positron emission particle tracking (PEPT) has been used to investigate the motion of radioactively labeled tracer particles attached fabrics and solid fabric enhancer (SFE) delivery articles, such as dryer sheets, in domestic clothes dryer. This work examines dynamics within across a range operating conditions. Six regions drum are identified, demonstrating movements experienced by items durin...

Geothermal energy can be effectively utilized for grain drying to reduce carbon emissions and also cut operational costs associated with conventional methods. The main challenges encountered in the use of geothermal dryer, such as Menengai, Kenya, include uneven long throughput times. Grains near hot air inlet dry at a faster rate compared those exhaust end. Therefore, grains must recirculated ...

orange (citrus cinensis) is one of the most important among citrus fruits. the thin layer drying kinetics of orange (thompson variety) slice was here experimentally investigated in a convective dryer and through mathematical modeling and by use of thin layer drying models. drying characteristics of oranges were determined using heated ambient air at temperatures from 40 to 80 °c and velocities ...

The object of this research is the design an affordable desiccant dryer for local farmers seed and vegetable drying. subsequent increase in food production has led to accompanying need easy, safe, preservation methods. This a substantial number driers, which are expensive acquire. Seeds certain vegetables do not well, under high heat used most dryers drying as process often final step before pa...

in this research, papaya slices with dimensions of 0.5×2×5 cm3 were dried at 45 °c using a cabinet dryer in which drying air velocity and relative humidity were 0.9 m/s and 30%, respectively. the moisture diffusion coefficient of papaya was determined in this drying condition. mass transfer equation with its boundary conditions was solved based on finite difference method. finally, coefficient ...

Wood darkening and kiln brown stain (KBS) in kiln drying has caused significant economic loss to the wood processing industry which. Although extensive studies have been performed, feasible drying techniques have not yet been developed to economically produce bright, pale colour wood from commercial drying. The current work research has been conducted to dry radiata pine sapwood in hot air and ...

Drying plays a crucial role in various industries such as food production, agriculture, Siddha, Ayurveda, and medical fields. To achieve controlled drying conditions, heat pump dryer is considered an effective method, allowing for precise control of parameters like temperature, humidity, air velocity. In this study, was designed constructed to investigate the characteristics Bermuda grass (Cyno...

In order to reduce the fuel consumption rate of traditional belt drying device and improve utilization internal space equipment, a double-layer chain plate shared is designed in this paper. The adopts transmission mode, which can simultaneously make use upper lower plates chain, mode combined heat source. Based on gas-solid transfer theory, numerical simulation model chamber dryer was establish...

The new latent heat recovery type semiconductor pump ground fast dryer is a kind of integrated refrigeration module on the traditional dryer. We simulated process wind being heated by hot end under different working conditions through ANSYS software, so as to obtain best solution for module. Using principles drying and air condensation, we calculated influence rate, time, condensation effect co...
