One promising technology in the field of residue valorization is the pyrolytic conversion of
biomass to biochar. There are a lot of proven technologies for this task, with many of them …

To investigate the particle motion in the flighted rotating drum (FRD), a laboratory drum with
four rectangular flights is horizontally arranged and filled with plastic particles in this work …

The performance of flighted rotary drums strongly depends on the distribution of the particles
across the drum transverse and longitudinal sections. This work aims to determine the …

Particle distribution in the cross-section of the flighted rotating drum (FRD) is critical to the
analysis of heat and mass transfer between gas and solids. In this work, the particle tracking …

A systematic investigation concerning the particle mixing behavior in a flighted rotary drum
through experiments and numerical simulations using DEM was performed in this study. The …

The particle motion in flighted rotating drums (FRD) is still not fully understood due to the
many influencing variables and its complexity. The method of Magnetic Particle Tracking …

Flights in rotary drums are used to improve the mixing and the heat transfer. They lift
particles out of the solid bed to shower them as curtains through the gas phase of the drum …

In the rotary dryers with flights, the drying occurs mainly in the active region where the
material comes into direct contact with the air stream. The design of these flights is a …

This study examines the effect of cohesive particle properties and rotary drum operating
conditions on heat transfer. Simulations were performed using the Discrete Element Method …

The particle dynamics in a flighted rotary drum operated with different numbers of flights and
under different operating conditions was simulated by using both the Eulerian …
