Bulk grain process and moving grain drier

摘要

Process and assembly to dry moist grain (FG), comprises; (a) forcing a quantity of bulk grain (1, 2, 3) of a given density (D1, D2, D3) to move forwards from the inlet (A) in a continual flow at a given speed (v1,v2, v3); and (b) transversely ventilating the moving flow of grain (1, 2, 3) by a flow of hot air (4', 4", 4''') at a temp. (t1, t2, t3) and given speed (s1, s2, s3) to dry to an acceptable moisture level. A suitable assembly incorporates: (d) a tower (5); (e) a moist grain (FG) inlet; (f) a hot air generator (6.1, 6.2); (g) a dry grain (TG) removal assembly (8).
