Intensification of drying process of wheat seeds based on differentiation of thermal energy supply

Abstract

Theoretical prerequisites for drying wheat seeds based on differentiation of the supply of thermal energy are presented. It is alternation of heating and cooling processes. In the structure of the theoretical premises, terms of efficiency of grain heating and efficiency of evaporation of surface moisture are introduced. To determine these coefficients, a methodology for experimental studies is presented, including laboratory equipment. The results of experimental studies and the prospects for the development of the topic are presented.
