In this study, investigation and appraisal method for the scene of a fire according to electrical fire hazards of hair dryer which is usually used at living space are presented. Hair dryer is briefly composed of heating part, wind part and control part. Electrical fire hazards of hair dryer are insulation destruction of power cord, ignition by overheat of heating coil, scattering spark on inside dust, overheat of motor by fan shackle, ignition by carelessness of user, and so on. Fire cause by hair dryer can be perceived through investigation about half-disconnection of power cord, contact badness of power plug, verification of heating coil, fan and switch. These results are expected to be utilized effectively in a countermeasure to prevent an electrical fire by hair dryer.

A natural air in-bin grain dryer with a grain circulator was developed for on farm use. Natural air drying test for rough rice was carried out to evaluate drying rate, uniformity of moisture content distribution in grain bed and energy consumption. It took 10 days to dry 8 ton of paddy rice from 21.9%(w.b) to 16.7%(w.b) moisture contents using the prototype dryer. The average drying rate was 0.52%/day. The uniformity of moisture content after drying was superior to the conventional natural air dryer where is grains were not circulated during drying periods. The dryer performance evaluation index was 738.3KJ/(kg.water), which was more effective than that of grain circulation t)pe hot air dryer(3,500-5,000 KJ/kg.water).

In this study, experiments were performed for various drying air temperatures, air flow rates tray distance to analyze drying characteristics of batch type tunnel dryer. In comparison of tunnel drying with cabinet drying which is currently used in the farm, the results of drying simulation model of cabinet dryer was used and then the possibility of applying the drying simulation model of cabinet dryer to batch type tunnel dryer was investigated. The results showed that as the drying temperature increased, the drying rte and moisture difference in the direction of air flow increased and as the air flow rate increased, the drying rate increased and moisture differences decreased. In tunnel dryer, drying through bottom of the tray had large effect on drying rate and the effect was more significant when the drying temperature increased. As air flow rate increased, the difference of drying rates between tunnel and cabinet drying increased and drying rate of tunnel of drying was higher. The drying simulation model could estimate moisture content in tunnel more precisely by using modified effective moisture diffusion coefficient for air flow rate.

The purpose of this study is to develop a paddle-type dryer and to commercialize the dryer, in which mixing and drying can be done simultaneously. According to a performance test, a newly-designed paddle-type dryer can dry Chitosan salt to a low moisture contents below 0.3%. Also the newly-designed dryer can dry air pollution materials, because the dryer can operate in a closed system. The economic efficiency of a newly-designed system and an existing system was compared in a performance test. As a result, the economic efficiency of a newly-designed system was higher than an existing system. In conclusion, it is thought that the newly-designed system has a high commercial value.

In a clothes dryer, various thermo-fluid flow phenomena occur such as the heat and mass transfer in the process of removing moisture from clothes, the flow field generated by the fan, and the various flow characteristics from the complex flow paths. The study and understanding of such phenomena is an important factor in increasing the performance of dryers. In this study, as part of a dryer research, the flow field inside a vented dryer was measured using PIV, which the result will be used as the basic material in analyzing the various flow phenomena.

This paper describes the design and implementation of dryer controller using the dual processor. This system has higher performance of system recovery from the noise than the existing single processor dryer. And in this paper temperature control method of Dryer using on-off fuzzy logic is proposed to improve the overshoot of temperature in dryer. Experimental results shows that the performance of fuzzy controller is better than that of controller based upon on-off control method.

The characteristics of a condenser dryer and a vented dryer that are common types of domestic clothes dryers for home use are predicted and compared in an effort to improve the efficiency and to overcome economical and environmental problems due to its inefficient power consumption. In the present study, a drying system is simplified by assuming the mechanism is composed of several elements such as heater and drum and mathematical models using the mass and energy conservation of moisture and air through each element are defined. Based on this mathematical model, the computational tool is developed to predict temperature, humidity and enthalpy of moisture and air in a drum and remained moisture contents (RMC) in drying materials. The computational results are verified by comparing with experimental results from existing studies. In addition, the efficiency of a dryer is calculated using these predicted results for a given condition and the drying characteristics of a condenser dryer and a vented dryer are compared and analyzed.

In order to prevent the environmental pollution, the dryers are commonly used to treat sludge that one of sewages is polluting the quality of water. Generally, the drying method is various as to the property of material and use. Rotary dryer is a good apparatus to treat them. It is the way that is to make substance transmission and heat using hot air between sludge particle and heated gas. In this paper, we developed a 3-pass rotary dryer for a design program for the 3-pass rotary dryer with various conditions. The working conditions of dryer are a raw sludge feed rate, input & output water content and operation time etc.

The rotary dryer is the way that is to make substance transmission and heating using hot air between sludge particles and heated gas. In this paper, we performed a numerical analysis of the inner air flow of the ANDRICH type dryer through the changing rotational speed from 3rpm to 10rpm. A PIV can be applied to research a inner flow of ANDRICH type dryer.

In this study, the flow analysis of fermentation tank, digester and dryer, which are the main equipment in environmental energy facilities, was carried out. Numerical analysis was carried out with the size of the actual plant, and 3D modeling program CATIA V5 R16, grid generation program Gambit, and general purpose flow analysis package ANSYS-FLUENT (v13) were used. Simulation results of the carrier gas flow analysis in the STD dryer using the computational fluid dynamics program showed that the carrier gas smoothly circulated between the shells of the dryer and the flow was uniformly distributed without stagnation or flow. It is also predicted that rotational flow due to shell rotation is active. The average flow velocity of carrier gas in the STD dryer was estimated to be about 0.196m / s, and the average temperature of the carrier gas was calculated to be 424K. Due to the relatively slow carrier gas velocity and high average temperature, the water content of the sludge can be effectively lowered.
