Energy analysis in fluidized‐bed drying of large wet particles

Energy analysis of a fluidized‐bed drying system is undertaken to optimize the fluidized‐bed drying conditions for large wet particles (Group D) using energy models. Three critical factors; the inlet air temperature, the fluidization velocity, and the initial moisture contents of the material (e.g., wheat) are studied to determine their effects on the overall energy efficiency to optimize the fluidized bed drying process. In order to verify the model, different experimental data sets for wheat material taken from the literature are used. The results show that the energy efficiencies of the fluidized‐bed dryer decrease with increasing drying time and become the lowest at the end of the drying process. It is observed that the inlet air temperature has an important effect on energy efficiency for the material where the diffusion coefficient depends on both the temperature and the moisture content of the particle. Furthermore, the energy efficiencies showed higher values for particles with high initial moisture content while the effect of gas velocity varied depending on the material properties. A good agreement is achieved between the model predictions and the available experimental results. Copyright © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Thermodynamic analysis of fluidized bed drying of carrot cubes

In this study, the energy and exergy analyses of fluidized bed drying of carrot cubes were investigated. Drying experiments were conducted at inlet air temperatures of 50, 60, and 70 °C, BD (bed depths) of 30, 60, and 90 mm and square-cubed carrot dimensions of 4, 7, and 10 mm. The effects of drying variables on energy utilization, energy utilization ratio, exergy loss and exergy efficiency were studied. The energy utilization and energy utilization ratio varied between 0.105–1.949 kJ/s and 0.074–0.486, respectively. The exergy loss and exergy efficiency were found to be in the range of 0.206–1.612 kJ/s and 0.103–0.707, respectively. The results showed that small particles, deep beds and high inlet air temperatures increased energy utilization, energy utilization ratio, and exergy loss due to high value of heat and mass transfer. Also, the exergy efficiency had maximum value when higher drying air temperature, larger CS (cube size) and shorter BD were used for drying experiment.

Effect of swirling flow on fluidized bed drying of wheat grains

In this paper, batch drying of wheat grains in a fluidized bed dryer, which had a swirling flow field in its drying medium, was experimentally investigated. In the experiments, a laboratory scaled fluidized bed type dryer was used. The effects of the swirling flow field on the drying performance were investigated by using an axial guide vane type swirl generator. The effects of the mass flow rate and temperature of the air on the drying performance were also investigated. The goal of this work is to present the experimental results on the drying process of wheat and the effects of the swirling flow field on the drying performance.     

A 3‐D numerical heat and mass transfer model for simulating the vibration effects on drying process

The high‐energy costs in the drying process highlight the employment of vibration which is a promising way to intensify this process. This work presents a three‐dimensional (3‐D) numerical version that exhibits the coupled heat and mass transfer phenomena posed by the external vibrating flow of hot air during the drying process. In order to simulate 3‐D vibrating drying, a 3‐D unstructured control volume finite element method is developed to analyze the heat and mass transfer during unsaturated porous media drying. Numerical simulation results, which depict the effects of the external vibrating flow which forces the drying process to occur more rapidly and intensively than ever before, are presented and analyzed.     

Thermal analysis of a fluidized bed drying process for crops. Part I: Mathematical modeling

Development of a comprehensive mathematical model to simulate the simultaneous heat and mass transfer processes in a bubbling fluidized bed is described. Although the model is applicable to a wide range of particles, wheat is chosen as an example. In the development of the model, the commonly used two‐phase theory is not used because of its insensitivity to the particle group used in the bed. Instead, a new hydrodynamic model is developed for each specific particle group. The behaviour of bubbles in a bed of group D particles (wheat) is modelled with the consideration that they grow in size as they rise in the bed, but are of the same size at any height in the bed. The voidage of bubbles, particles and interstitial gas is modelled separately. A newly developed expression to determine the minimum fluidization velocity of wet particles is used. The model considers the presence of different phases inside the bed, and their physical variation along the bed. The interstitial gas phase, the bubble phase, and the solid phase are modelled separately. The drying mechanism for the solid phase is considered in two stages: the falling rate, and the constant rate, with appropriate temperature and moisture diffusion coefficients and wall effects. The simultaneous heat and mass transfer processes during the drying process including the internal and external effects are modelled for each phase. A set of coupled nonlinear partial differential equations is employed to accurately model the drying process without using any adjustable parameters. A numerical code is developed to solve the governing partial differential equations using a control volume‐based discretization approach. Piecewise profiles expressing the variation of dependent variables between the grid points are used to evaluate the required integrals. Copyright © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Experimental comparison of solar drying based on evacuated tube collector with desiccant drying for dehydrating potato and ginger

In this article, a comparative study of different drying techniques, namely, open sun drying (OSD), desiccant drying, solar drying (SD), and solar drying with desiccant (SDWD) was done for drying potato and ginger. The thermal efficiency and air temperature differences of the solar dryer based on evacuated tube collectors were also examined. The average efficiency of the solar dryer was 29.01%. Average drying rates of OSD, desiccant drying, SD, and SDWD bed are 0.435, 0.435, 0.59, and 0.635 g/min. The moisture content of the potato was reduced from 79.6% to 32.9% by OSD, 32.6% by desiccant drying, 9.6% by SD, and 6.9% by SDWD. The moisture content of the ginger was reduced from its initial value of 82.3%–25.3% by OSD, 25% by desiccant drying, 10.1% by SD, and 3.2% by SDWD. SD assisted with a desiccant bed proved to be the best method for drying vegetables. Drying with desiccants is not feasible for drying in winter and spring seasons of the Indian climate.

Process simulation of a lignite-fired circulating fluidized bed boiler integrated with a dryer and a pyrolyzer

A process model using Aspen Plus was established to simulate the performance of a lignite-fired 1,025 t/h circulating fluidized bed boiler integrated with a dryer and a pyrolyzer for improving the energy efficiency. The combustion module of the proposed model was first verified by design data and the system characteristics of the circulating fluidized bed boiler combined with the coal dryer and the pyrolyzer were then investigated. The most suitable case for the retrofit of existing 1,025 t/h CFB boilers is that 35% of the coal was dried and then pyrolyzed with the energy efficiency of 95.3% and exergy efficiency of 50.2%. The results demonstrate the lignite-fired circulating fluidized bed boiler integrated with a dryer and a pyrolyzer facilitates the system performances effectively.     

Models of fluidized bed drying for thin-layer chopped coconut

Methods for efficiently drying agricultural products are in ever-increasing demand. Due to its thorough mixing ability, a fluidized bed technique was employed to evaluate the drying kinetics of thin-layer chopped coconut. The experiments were conducted at drying temperatures of 60–120 °C and a constant velocity of 2.5 m/s. Chopped coconut was dried from about 105% d.b. to approximately 3% d.b. The moisture transport phenomenon in fluidized bed thin-layer drying is described by immense acceleration in MR diminution in the early stage of drying, followed by considerable deceleration. Falling-rate drying, an outgrowth of restraining moisture transfer via internal mass-diffusion mechanism, thoroughly characterized chopped coconut drying. Among the 10 selected models, statistic analysis inferred that the Modified Henderson and Pabis model could predict changes in moisture content most accurately. Compared with the values of D_eff derived from Fick’s law for other food and biological materials usually dried in conventional tray dryers, the current values (5.9902 × 10^?8–2.6616 × 10^?7 m²/s) were substantially high, principally attributable to the unique characteristic of fluidized bed drying, remarkably encouraging heat and mass transfer. Activation energy was also described.

Thermal analysis in fluidized bed drying of moist particles

This paper deals with thermal modeling of the fluidized bed drying of wet particles to study heat and mass transfer aspects and drying thermal efficiencies. The model is then validated with the literature experimental data obtained for corn. A parametric investigation is undertaken to study the effects of the inlet air temperature, the air velocity and the initial moisture content of the material (i.e. corn) on the process thermal efficiency. The results show that the thermal efficiencies of the fluidized bed drying decrease sharply with decreasing moisture content of corn and hence increasing drying time, and apparently become the lowest at the end of the drying process. This clearly indicates that the moisture transfer from the material depends strongly on the air temperature, air velocity and the moisture content of material. A good agreement is obtained between the model predictions and the available experimental results.     

The Effects of Bed Height and Initial Moisture Concentration on Drying Lignite in a Batch Fluidized Bed

In this study, drying of a lignite from Erzurum Ispir-Karahan province, with air in a batch fludized bed, was investigated. In the experiments, effects of bed height and initial moisture concentration of the coal on the drying behavior were studied. It was found that the drying rate increased with a decrease in bed height. Also, coal particles with an initial lower moisture content showed a marginal decrease of drying rate compared with higher moisture content particles. It was also observed that the equilibrium moisture content, and the time taken to reach the equilibrium moisture content, decreased with decreasing initial moisture concentration, while the critical moisture content generally decreased. Also, it fixed with decreasing bed height, while the critical moisture content increased.     

Performance study of a heat pump dryer system for specialty crops—Part 2: Model verification

The experimental and predicted performance data of a heat pump dryer system is reported. Chopped alfalfa was dried in a cabinet dryer in batches and also by emulating continuous bed drying using two heat pumps operating in parallel. Results showed that alfalfa was dried from an initial moisture content of 70% (wb) to a final moisture content of 10% (wb). The batch drying took about 4.5 h while continuous bed drying took 4 h to dry the same amount of material. The average air velocity inside the dryer was 0.36 m s^?1. Low temperatures (30–45°C) for safe drying of specialty crops were achieved experimentally. The heat pump drying system used in this study was about 50% more efficient in recovering the latent heat from the dryer exhaust compared to the conventional dryers. Specific moisture extraction rate (SMER) was maximum when relative humidity stayed above 40%. The dryer was shown to be capable of SMER of between 0.5 and 1.02 kg kW^?1 h^?1. It was concluded that continuous bed drying is potentially a better option than batch drying because high process air humidity ratios at the entrance of the evaporator and constant moisture extraction rate and specific moisture extraction rate values can be maintained. An uncertainty analysis confirmed the accuracy of the model. Copyright © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
