Book Drying

Download or read book Drying written by R. B. Keey and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drying Principles and Practice presents the fundamental principles that underlie drying arts as a basis for explaining the behavior of a drying plant. This book begins with an introductory chapter, followed by an account of the phenomena that causes the influence of moisture on its host material and manner in which moisture may be expelled by heat into the humid surroundings. The quantitative description of the way a moist material dries and how it dries under commercial conditions are also provided. The remainder of this text is devoted to surveying less-common methods of drying, moisture-measurement techniques, dryer-control systems, and aspects of the choice and design of industrial dryers. This publication is valuable to engineers, but is also a good source for senior undergraduate and postgraduate students engaged in studies of heat with mass transfer.

Book Diffusion Processes During Drying of Solids

Download or read book Diffusion Processes During Drying of Solids written by K. N. Shukla and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1990 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The monograph presents a detailed mathematical examination of the generalised laws of diffusion in capillary porous solids as applicable to particular geometric situations of interest in the technology of drying. The novelty of the monograph is to present the result in dimensionless form under general type of boundary conditions. Many important results are presented graphically. The integral transform technique is used throughout the work and a host of useful information of the technique is included in the appendix. Research scientists and practising engineers in the areas of applied mathematics, materials and energy will find it a very useful monograph.

Book Thermomechanics of Drying Processes

Download or read book Thermomechanics of Drying Processes written by Stefan Jan Kowalski and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-11-29 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is interdisciplinary in character and combines the knowledge of me chanics and chemical engineering with the aim of presenting a more exhaustive analysis ofthe phenomena occurring in wet materials during drying. Traditionally, the subject of drying has been an almost exclusive domain of chemical engineers. The drying curricula have mostly included only the courses of heat and mass transfer or diffusion. The mechanical phenomena that accompany drying, as for example, warping or deformation of dried materials, or the drying induced stresses and fissures of the material, were ignored or considered in a rather obscure way. This book broadens the scope of drying theory, bringing into the curriculum the tools enabling the study of both heat and mass transport processes and the me chanical phenomena that occur in wet materials under drying. There is little available literature that brings together heat and mass transport processes and mechanical phenomena in a unified approach to drying processes.

Book Mass Transfer Driven Evaporation From Capillary Porous Media

Download or read book Mass Transfer Driven Evaporation From Capillary Porous Media written by Rui Wu and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2022-11-09 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mass Transfer–Driven Evaporation from Capillary Porous Media offers a comprehensive review of mass transfer–driven drying processes in capillary porous media, including pore-scale and macro-scale experiments and models. It covers kinetics of drying of a single pore, pore-scale experiments and models, macro-scale experiments and models, and understanding of the continuum model from pore-scale studies. The book: Explains the detailed transport processes in porous media during drying. Introduces cutting-edge visualization experiments of drying in porous media. Describes the pore network models of drying in porous media. Discusses the continuum models of drying in porous media based on pore-scale studies. Points out future research opportunities. Aimed at researchers, students and practicing engineers, this work provides vital fundamental and applied information to those working in drying technology, food processes, applied energy, and mechanical and chemical engineering.

Download or read book Drying of Solids written by Arun S. Mujumdar and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International contributors give wide coverage of the latest developments in the theory and practice of the drying of solids. Drying is one of the most common and energy-intensive operations in industry, and the cost is determined by the desired level of product moisture and the unit operation of nonthermal dewatering--hence the commissioned article on a new dewatering technique. Articles are balanced between theory and applications and practicing engineers should find a wealth of useful information. Topics covered include drying theory and modelling, drying of granular solids, drying of sheets, drying of foodstuffs, drying of agricultural products, solar drying, and drying of slurries.
