Rotary Dryer
Overview – Rotary Dryer Educational Setup
The Rotary Dryer trainer is a versatile heat transfer and drying process educational setup used to study the principles of drying solid materials in a rotating drum with hot air circulation. This rotary dryer lab equipment helps engineering students understand how moisture is removed from wet solids, simulating industrial drying processes such as those used in the food, chemical, and pharmaceutical industries.
With its controlled experimental environment, this rotary dryer test rig enables learners to calculate important drying parameters such as moisture content, drying rate, efficiency, and heat transfer coefficients. It is an essential heat transfer laboratory unit widely used in I.T.I., engineering colleges and technical institutes.
Product Description – Rotary Dryer Lab Equipment
The rotary dryer educational setup consists of a rotating cylindrical drum mounted on supports, driven by a variable speed motor. Wet solids are fed into the drum while hot air is passed through, allowing efficient contact between solids and air for moisture removal.
The apparatus is equipped with temperature sensors, digital controllers, and a heating system, which help monitor and control the drying process. The collected data allows students to plot drying curves and analyze drying kinetics under various operating conditions.
Built with durable materials, this rotary dryer demonstration unit ensures safe operation, long service life, and accurate performance in repeated laboratory experiments.
