MATHEMATICAL MODELING AND NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF THE DRYING PROCESS OF SEEDS IN A PILOT PLANT

Journal Title: INMATEH-Agricultural Engineering - Year 2019, Vol 57, Issue 1

Abstract

The artificial drying of grain seeds is widespread to ensure that they are preserved, as reducing the water content allows products to be stored for long periods of time without the need for complex storage facilities. The proposed drying installation is a low-capacity pilot one, which can change and monitor in real time a series of important parameters of the drying process. By means of the CFD simulation the construction of the cylindrical box and of the deflectors was optimized. This leads to reaching a uniform drying and to reducing the energy consumptions.
