INFLUENCE OF HEAT-EXCHANGE SIMILARITY CRITERIA ON THE DRYING OF INDUSTRIAL FABRICS BY THERMAL RADIATION

The drying of industrial fabrics was investigated within the framework of the heat-and-mass exchange theory by the method of regular regime of heating of a moist body at a constant temperature of the heat-transfer agent. Empirical equations for calculating the main kinetic parameters of drying of the indicated fabrics on the basis of the Boltzmann radiation criterion have been derived. A method of graphical-analytical calculation of the drying kinetics of fabrics is proposed.
