STUDY THE SIMULATION OF THICK LAYER STATIC PADDY DRYING PROCESS

Abstract

The article presents the research to simulate the static paddy drying process
in a flat bed dryer by a Partial Differential Equation model and solves the model
by the difference method and compares with the experimental results of project
CARD to correct the simulation model and then to evaluate the effects of drying
conditions as the grain thickness, air reversal time, temperature, humidity and
drying agent speed to determine the optimal paddy drying regime for the design
and efficient operation of this common dryer in Vietnam.
