Abstract
The presence of condensate inside the dryer cylinders produces a significant increase in the power requirements during starting, putting at risk the capacity of the drive to complete a successful start. In past papers, authors developed estimation algorithms for the detection of condensate during section starting. This paper proposes and evaluates a new strategy that will complement the previous algorithms. This strategy will detect the presence of condensate from the condensate collapsing during the section shutdown. The proposed correlations are derived through a complete experimental evaluation in two experimental cylinders covering rim thicknesses up to 55 mm. The estimation algorithms are split into a low-/moderate-condensate-load zone and a high-condensate-load zone. Results confirm the robustness and accuracy of the proposed algorithms.
