Development of the Heat and Mass Transfer Model for Mixed-Flow Grain Dryer
نویسندگان
چکیده
A mathematical model of the coupled heat and mass transfer has been developed to calculate the drying process in a mixed-flow grain dryer. Periodical discharge operation of the dryer causes strong variations of temperature and moisture of the material. A series of quasi-stationary drying experiments have been carried out. These results are used to test and to improve the dryer model. The calculated results are in relative good agreement in the stationary operation period which is relevant for practice.

Characterization of unsteady double-diffusive mixed convection flow with soret and dufour effects in a square enclosure with top moving lid
The present study considers the numerical examination of an unsteady thermo-solutal mixed convection when the extra mass and heat diffusions, called as Soret and Dufour effects, were not neglected. The numerical simulations were performed in a lid-driven cavity, where the horizontal walls were kept in constant temperatures and concentrations. The vertical walls were well insulated. A finite vol...

متن کاملFlow Analysis Heat and Mass Transfer in a Room
This reports the study on the flow behaviour, heat transfer and contamination distribution in a room. For this purpose the 3-D incompressible Navier-Stokes equations, energy equation and a mass transfer equation which model the concentration of contamination have been applied. For turbulence simulation the two equation standard k- turbulence model was employed. By means of SIMPLE algorithm the...
