The simulated and measured performance of rotary dryers used to dry wood waste fuels using boiler exhaust gases

Creator:

Kirk, Raymond W.

Abstract:

This study evaluates the feasibility of retrofitting a rotary dryer to a hog fuel boiler, using the boiler exhaust gases as the drying medium. Two simulation models were developed. As substantiated by experimental measurement of existing boiler/dryer systems, each model accurately predicts system performance given site-specific parameters such as boiler...
