ABSTRACT:
A grain dryer is disclosed in which a blower forces air past a burner and then through a duct into a bin made of oppositely curved columns of grain defining between them and an end wall a plenum chamber for drying the grain in the bin. The invention resides in the use of a plurality of spaced baffles of particular configuration designed to take a stream of air of non-uniform pressure and temperature over a cross section of the stream, and transforming said stream into a stream in the plenum chamber of substantially uniform pressure and temperature over any cross section thereof, said stream, if desired, having a predetermined temperature gradient lengthwise of the bin which compensates for a lengthwise dryness gradient in the grain in the bin.
