MATHEMATICAL MODELING AND NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF THE DRYING PROCESS OF SEEDS IN A PILOT PLANT
Journal Title: ISB-INMA TEH AGRICULTURAL AND MECHANICAL ENGINEERING - Year 2018, Vol 0, Issue 8
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 was optimized the construction of the cylindrical box and of the deflectors. This leads to reaching a uniform drying and to reducing the energy consumptions.
