Abstract

Using variable temperature and relative humidity of natural air based on local climatic conditions for natural drying aeration of grain is an energy-saving and efficient method. The study of heat and moisture transfer within grain piles during natural air and low-temperature air drying aeration of bulk corn in low-humidity areas, which can provide theoretical support for selecting efficient and low-consumption grain drying processes and practical applications. In this study, the mathematical model of the coupled heat and moisture transfer dynamics in the dry silo was verified using experimental datum of grain storage drying aeration experiment, and the relative error was less than 5% between the simulated and the experimental datum. Based on this validated model, the temperature and moisture content variations of in-silo bulk corn drying were simulated by computational fluid dynamics (CFD) numerical simulation techniques. The simulations included continuous drying aeration with daily average, hourly average temperature and relative humidity of the local natural air, and low-temperature air drying aeration with heated up to 3°C over the ambient temperature, as well as intermittent drying aeration. Drying effectiveness and economic efficiency were also analyzed and evaluated. The costs for continuous drying aeration with hourly average of natural air and low-temperature, intermittent drying aeration with hourly average of natural air are 0.032, 0.042, and 0.016 CNY/kg, respectively. Compared to traditional high-temperature hot air drying, the costs of these methods were reduced by 0.048, 0.038, and 0.064 CNY/kg, respectively.

利用自然风和低温空气对锥底筒仓中散装玉米进行横流干燥曝气时的传热和传湿模拟研究
根据当地气候条件,利用变温变湿的自然空气对粮食进行自然干燥曝气是一种节能高效的方法。研究低湿地区散装玉米自然风干和低温风干曝气过程中粮堆内的传热传湿,可为选择高效低耗的粮食干燥工艺和实际应用提供理论支持。本研究利用粮食储藏干燥曝气实验数据对干燥仓内热湿耦合传质动力学数学模型进行了验证,模拟数据与实验数据的相对误差小于 5%。在此验证模型的基础上,利用计算流体动力学(CFD)数值模拟技术模拟了仓内散装玉米干燥的温度和含水量变化。模拟包括当地自然空气的日平均、小时平均温度和相对湿度的连续式干燥曝气、比环境温度高 3°C 的低温空气干燥曝气以及间歇式干燥曝气。此外,还对干燥效果和经济效益进行了分析和评估。利用自然空气每小时平均值进行连续干燥曝气和利用自然空气每小时平均值进行低温间歇干燥曝气的成本分别为 0.032、0.042 和 0.016 元人民币/公斤。与传统的高温热风干燥相比,这些方法的成本分别降低了 0.048、0.038 和 0.064 元人民币/公斤。
