The methods of optimization and regulation of the convective drying process of materials in drying installations

In this work, based on fundamental principles well-established in the field of drying technology, optimization for the process of material drying involves controlling the mechanism of moisture transfer by influencing diffusion and thermo-diffusion processes.  Based on the Kirpichov criterion, a quantitative measure of moisture transfer dynamics is ensured, while Nusselt numbers help control temperature gradient and efficient moisture removal.  The article proposes the use of empirical relationships between Nusselt numbers and problem parameters such as moisture content,
