Numerical Study on Spray Drying Process: Effect of Nonuniform Temperature Field and Interaction between Droplets on Evaporation Rates of Individual Droplets
Abstract:Spray drying process is widely used to produce particulate materials in the pharmaceutical industries, such as porous materials for direct compression, solid dispersion for improvement of drug dissolution properties, micro encapsulation to stabilize active compounds, taste masking, preparation of dry powder for inhalation. However, as many factors affect the physical properties of dried particles and the spray drying processes have complex behaviors in which heat and mass transfer occur simultaneously, the det… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
