Dryer modeling, design and scale

General Principles Models and calculations on dryers can be categorized in terms of (1) the level of complexity used and (2) the purpose or type of calculation (design, performance rating, or scale-up). A fully structured approach to dryer modeling can be developed from these principles, as described below and in greater detail by Kemp and Oakley (2002). [Pg.1371]

Entrainment Dryers In design mode, the required gas flow rate can be obtained from a heat and mass balance. For pneumatic conveying dryers, duct cross-sectional area and diameter are found from the scoping design calculation (if required gas velocity is unknown, a typical value is 20 m/s). Duct length can be estimated by an incremental model, but some parameters are hard to obtain and conditions change rapidly near the feed point, so the model is most effective for scaling up from pilot-plant data see Kemp and Oakley (2002).

These models use experimental data from drying kinetics tests in a laboratory, pilot-plant or full-scale dryer, and are thus more accurate and reliable than methods based only on estimated drying kinetics. They treat the dryer as a complete unit, with drying rates and air velocities averaged over the dryer volume, except that, if desired, the dryer can be subdivided into a small number of sections. These methods are used for layer dryers (tray, oven, horizontal-flow band, and vertical-flow plate types) and for a simple estimate of fluidized-bed dryer performance. For batch dryers, they can be used for scale-up by refining the scoping design calculation. [Pg.1373]
