Abstract
Abstract
A mathematical model for the rotary dryer that determines the total residence time is developed. Experiments were performed in a laboratory-scale direct contact rotary dryer with the gas flowing concurrently with the solids. The model predictions depicted that the total residence time decreases with increasing the inclination of the rotary drum, the speed of rotation and the radius of rotary drum. The validation of the model was carried out experimentally for maize while varying the inclination of the rotary drum and the speed of rotation. The experimental results were observed to be in good agreement with the model predictions.
