Modelling of Continuous Vibrating Fluidised Bed Dryers

This project deals with the development of mathematical models for drying materials containing single or multicomponent solvents in continuous vibrating fluidised bed dryers. The main focus is the development of material models that can be solved analytically but implemented in such a way that they can describe the main features of the process, particularly the changing physical properties of the material through the dryer and complex drying systems.
