| description | This study designed a corn kernel drying device and optimized the structure of key components. FLUENT software was used for numerical simulation of wet heat coupling. The differences in physical fields were compared within the drying section before and after optimization. The optimized drying section exhibited improved drying uniformity, drying efficiency, and drying quality. The optimized drying section took 180 seconds for the temperature at the center point to reach the expected value, while the mixed flow drying section took 240 seconds. The moisture content of the optimized drying section decreased to 3.79% at this point, while that of the mixed flow drying section was 2.89%. The results indicated that the drying uniformity and efficiency of the optimized drying structure were higher than those of the mixed flow drying structure. This research provides important data for the design of corn drying equipment. |
