Abstract:Heat transfer in the rotary kiln is a complex phenomenon due to the different modes of heat transfer. In the first part of this study, the local heat transfer coefficients are analysed theoretically, to describe the heat transfer mechanisms in the cross section of the rotary kiln. Furthermore, the axial solid motion along the length of the kiln is considered in the local surfaces which exchanges the heat. A pilot plant drum of length 0.45 m and internal diameter of 0.6 m has been designed and fabricated to mea… Show more
