Description
The
set-up is designed to demonstrate and stimulate the moisture removal by heat
under forced draft action created by hot air stream.
The set-up consists of an insulated double wall chamber. Inside the chamber
a tray is attached directly to an electronic weighing balance, which is
fitted on top outside the chamber. Material for drying is placed in the tray
and regular loss of weight is monitored. Air from blower passes through
heating chamber to produce hot air works as the drying agent entered from one
side of the chamber and leave the chamber from other side removes the
moisture from the tray. An arrangement is made to vary and measure the
airflow rate. A digital temperature controller is used to control and measure
the temperature of air stream.
