Performance Evaluation of Natural Convection Grain Dryer using Phase Change Material for Quality Drying of Paddy
Conservation of agricultural crops and minimization of grain losses is challenging issue in the present scenario. Effective use of thermal energy for drying of paddy and other cereals for maintaining proper quality is the quality drying process. Natural convection grain dryer is quite suitable for under developed and developing countries like India where rural electrification and advanced dryin...
متن کاملNatural Convection in a Periodically Heated Slot
Heat transfer resulting from the natural convection in a fluid layer contained in an infinite horizontal slot bounded by solid walls and subject to a spatially periodic heating at the lower wall has been investigated. The heating produces sinusoidal temperature variations along one horizontal direction characterized by the wave number α with the amplitude expressed in terms of a suitably define...
متن کاملNatural convection heat transfer above heated horizontal surfaces
An extensive reasoned review of the results available in the literature for free convection heat transfer from a heated flat plate facing upwards, is conducted. The review is organized in the form of a table, so as to give the reader the opportunity to compare the heat transfer data, expressed through dimensionless equations, as well as the conditions under which these data were obtained. A com...
متن کاملIn-bin Grain Drying Systems
The main categories of in-bin dryer systems are reviewed. For Southeast Asian conditions, research on in-store dryers is discussed, as a component of a two stage drying system for maximum quality preservation and reduced drying cost. Limitations for paddy and maize exist, requiring management of the system to obtain these benefits. Examples of adoption of in-store drying in conjullction with fi...
متن کاملUsing NIRS to measure grain quality in storage
To manage quality across a supply chain to the standard required by sophisticated markets requires equally sophisticated real-time monitoring technologies that are universal, cheap, simple to use, rapid, reliable and require minimal sample preparation. Feedback from industry indicates that a successful technology will be robust and cheap enough to be used at grain receival silos. Appropriate mo...
