METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DRYING PRODUCTS

摘要

A method for drying products (3) in a drying space (2), wherein in a direct or indirect manner, thermal energy is supplied to a flow of gas and the flow of gas is passed along the products. The flow rate PHI of the flow of gas through the drying space and/or the amount of supplied thermal energy Q is controlled, and in or djacent the drying space, measurements are carried out for determining the drying rate of the products in the drying space. According to the invention, the flow rate PHI of the flow of gas and/or the amount of supplied thermal energy Q is controlled depending on the drying rate determined. The invention also relates to an apparatus (1) for drying products.
