Abstract

The paper is focused on the creation of the simulation of drying process in a spraying kiln. Production process of ceramic granulate was selected as a subject for simulations. The simulation model is created in Matlab program – Simulink according to the equation for energy balance and parameter values from a real kiln. The simulation monitors the dependency of mensural granulate moisture on absolute moisture of drying gas at the output. Two experiments were carried out on the created simulation model. Changes of final granulate moisture were studied while assuring different input values of drying parameters.
