Thermal efficiency of dryer excluding hot
gas furnace,
= (heat for vaporization + sensible heat
for material) / (heat input from hot gas)
= (qw+q6)/q3*100 = (432500+52700)/(1050000)*100
= 46.2% |
Overall efficiency of total system including
hot gas furnace,
= (heat for vaporization + sensible heat
for material) / (total heat input)
= (q41+q61)/(q8+q5)*100 = (446800+79100)/(1240000+40500)
= 41.1% |
Theoretically attainable maximum thermal
efficiency,
max = (T3-T4)/(T3-T0)*100 = (300-120)/(300-20)*100
= 64.3% |
