Properties of air are interrelated in a drying process. Equations of psychrometrics and fluid dynamics developed by previous researchers enable the development of simulation models, which become an indispensable tool for the study of drying technology. A Windows based software, entitled SAPGD (Simulation of Air Properties and Grain Drying), written in MATLAB, was developed to simulate the equations/models related to the following four aspects: ORDER REPRINTS 3. The relationship between drying time and moisture content under the model of thin layer drying of grains. 4. The relationships among drying time, moisture content, grain depth, and grain temperature under the logarithmic model of deep bed drying of grains.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
