Internal Flow Analysis of a Dual-Swirl Dryer for Zingiberaceous Root Drying Through Numerical Simulation with Experimental Validation
Convective drying of Zingiberaceous roots, particularly ginger (Zingiber officinale), requires a uniform distribution of airflow and temperature to ensure energy efficiency and product quality. However, many drying systems exhibit aerothermal limitations that produce temperature gradients and non-uniform drying conditi...
