Abstract
This study was conducted to develop an optimization model using Box's Complex Algorithm, and to determine optimum operating conditions to minimize costs for the drying and storage system using the grain cooler. To minimize the system operation cost, the optimum moisture contents after the first drying were found to be from 17.2 to 19.8 %. And optimum drying and cooling capacities were obtained. The combination of the dryer and grain cooler was found to be economical, showing enhancement of the drying capacity over 50%, and decrease of drying cost over 10%. When the circulating grain dryers of 6 and 20 ton/batch were used in conjunction with the grain cooler, the cost required for drying and storage system for paddy were 28,464∼33,317won/ton and 20,588∼26,511 won/ton, respectively, which was from 2.6 to 27.3% lower than that of conventional drying and storage system.
