Modeling and simulating the drying of grass seeds (Brachiaria brizantha) in fluidized beds: evaluation of heat transfer coefficients
This work is aimed at modeling the heat transfer mechanism in a fluidized bed of grass seeds (Brachiaria brizantha) for supporting further works on simulating the drying of these seeds in such a bed. The three-phase heat transfer model, developed by Vitor et al. (2004), is the one used for this prop...
