Convection Drying Unit
Convection Drying Unit
???? Overview
The SR-CE 130 is a high-performance
training unit designed to study and demonstrate convection drying of granular
solids. With its transparent design and digital instrumentation, it provides a
clear view of the drying process and real-time data collection, making it ideal
for technical education, laboratory training, and research applications.
???? Learning Objectives
·
Understand the
principle of convective drying of solids
·
Investigate the
relationship between air velocity, temperature, humidity, and drying rate
·
Analyze mass loss
of materials during drying using a precision balance
·
Evaluate the
effect of drying conditions on different granular solids
·
Use real-time
data acquisition software for processing and reporting experimental results
