. Mechanical grain dryer wherein the grain in fixed amount is held in the drying chamber in batches until the grain reaches the desired moisture content.
BATCH TYPE
Batch type dryer wherein a fixed amount of grain is held stationary in a horizontal grain holding bin.
FLAT BED TYPE
batch type dryer equipped to circulate and/or mixed fixed volume of grain during the drying
operation
recirculating type
batch type dryer wherein a fixed volume of grain is held stationary in a vertical grain holding
bin
vertical bin type
dryer in which the material being dried moves through the drying chamber in a substantially
continuous stream and is discharged without being recirculated
continuous flow dryer
continuous flow dryer wherein the product being dried moves in the same direction as drying
air
concurrent flow type
continuous flow dryer wherein the grain being dried move in one direction and the drying air
moves in the opposite direction
counter-flow type
continuous flow dryer wherein the flow of air is transverse to the direction of flow of the
grain being dried
cross-flow type
continuous flow dryer wherein the drying bin is similar to columnar drying bin except that it
includes louvers causing mixing to occur as the grain flows through the system
mixing type
continuous flow dryer wherein the grains in the drying bin flows through the column in a
straight path
non-mixing type
grains which show signs of fissures or fractures or splinters
cracked grain
dryer in which the products of combustion come into direct contact with the product being
dried
dryer, direct-fired
dryer in which the products of combustion do not come in contact with the products being
dried
dryer, indirect-fired
ratio of the total heat utilized to vaporize moisture in the material, to the amount of heat
added to the drying air expressed in percent
drying efficiency / heat utilization efficiency
device used to collect dust ( i.e. consist of aspiration fan, cyclone, etc.)
dust collecting system
air moving device that is used to force heated air through the mass of grains at the desired air
flow rate and pressure
fan
