Research of optimum calculation of vibrating infrared dryers

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to develop and improve the technological process and experimental and technical means of drying mulberry silkworm cocoons in an infrared (IR) drying unit, which can significantly speed up the processing and obtain a quality end product, as well as reduce energy costs for drying. The scientific novelty consists of the application of vibration in the process of drying silkworm cocoons by infrared radiation and the development of generalized calculation of such drying units. Our proposed calculation of infrared drying units is the most optimal calculation for silkworm cocoon morphing and drying.
