ANALYSIS OF PARAMETERS IMPORTANT FOR INDIRECT DRYING OF BIOMASS FUEL

Original language description

This paper focuses on biomass drying for the design and operation of an indirect dryer used in a biomass power plant. Indirect biomass drying is not as well described process as direct drying, especially when used for the preparation of biomass in energy processes, such as combustion or gasification. Therefore, it is necessary to choose a suitable model describing the drying process and evaluate its applicability for this purpose. The aim of this paper is to identify parameters that most significantly affect the indirect drying process of biomass for precise targeting of future experiments. For this purpose, the penetration model was chosen. The penetration model describes indirect drying through 21 parameters. To run a series of experiments focused on all parameters would be time consuming. Therefore, the easier way is to select the most important parameters through a sensitivity analysis, and then perform experiments focused only on the significant parameters The parameters evaluated as significant are the temperature of the heated wall, operating pressure in the drying chamber, surface coverage factor, emissivity of the heated wall, emissivity of the bed, diameter of the particle, and particle surface roughness. Due to the presumption of perfect mixing of the material being dried, stirrer speed is added into important parameters. Based on these findings, it will be possible to reduce the scope of experiments necessary to verify the applicability of the penetration model for the description of indirect biomass drying and the design of dryers for a practical use.
