Concurrent drying of soybean seeds: the effect of the radial air profile

The aim of this work was to analyze the heat and mass transfer between the air and soybean seeds in a concurrent moving bed dryer with an air profile that is not flat. The modelling of heat and mass transfer in moving bed dryers is generally based on the application of mass and energy balance equati...
