Experimental study on drying characteristic of corncob in plate rotary heat exchanger

Abstract: Agricultural processing residues, such as corncobs, can be used as good biomass pellet fuels. To thoroughly study the drying characteristics of corncobs in a rotary dryer, a plate rotary heat exchanger (PRHE) was applied to the drying of corncob particles in the present article. The PRHE had an inner diameter of 273 mm and a length of 1,000 mm. Twelve rectangular plates were designed as the heating plate. The influence of several parameters on the corncob drying characteristics was experimentally investigated.… Show more

“…For these reasons, drying has been a challenge for engineers and researchers, and the optimization of this process has to be of primordial importance. Despite the availability of newer and more specialized dryers, rotary dryers are often considered as a typical example of modern engineering applications [2]. They are still used in the process industry, especially when the solid is in granular form and is not friable [3].…”

“…Souza et al [17] analyzed heat and mass transfer between soybean seeds and the air in the so-called roto aerated dryer in recent work. Qu et al [2] explored an experimental method for evaluating a corncob's drying characteristics in a plate rotary heat exchanger. They studied the influence of several parameters on the maximum drying rate.…”
