ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for drying wood or other solid material has an elongate cylindrical vessel in which there is an elongate platform on which is placed the material to be dried. The platform divides the interior of the vessel into an upper drying chamber and a lower condensing chamber with restricted communication between the two chambers. In the drying chamber there is a heater and one or more fans for circulating the air and water vapor in the chamber. An air cooling channel of much greater width than height extends below the vessel for its full length and is formed between a lower part of the vessel and a spaced outer wall formed of sheet metal or plastic and preferably heat insulated. One or more fans in the base of a chimney at one end of the cooling channel produce variable and reversible flow of air through the cooling channel.
