Abstract

In this study, a drying kinetics model for predicting the drying of green pea particles using a bench-scale spouted bed with heat carriers is investigated. The experiments were carried out under different operating conditions. The effect of inert particle diameter, inert particle type, and the mass ratio of inert particles to green peas was examined based on the performance of the dryer and the rate of drying. As expected, the rate of drying increased with increased mass ratio of inert particles to green peas and thermal diffusivity of inert particles.
