...Anand Kushwah; Anil Kumar This study evaluates the drying behavior, kinetics, morphology, efficiency, and heat and mass transfer phenomena of three differently shaped samples. A refined model was used to validate experimental results. The maximum recorded solar irradiance and ambient air...

...P. S. Ghoshdastidar; Ankit Agarwal The present work reports a computer simulation and optimization study of heat transfer in a rotary kiln used for drying and preheating wood chips with superheated steam at 1 bar. A rotary kiln employed for drying and preheating wet solids consists of a refractory...
