ABSTRACT:
A perforated drum serves as a drying chamber into which moist particles are loaded. The drum is rotated about a horizontal axis to tumble the particles. Sonic energy and hot pulsating gas from a pulse jet engine are supplied to a plenum opening into the drum.
The gas flows through the drum transversely to the axis and contacts the tumbling particles to dry them. A shroud encloses the drum. Moisture-laden gas exhausted from the drum is collected in the shroud and recycled to the pulse jet engine. Sonic energy escaping from the drum is reflected by the shroud back into the drum. The particles are continually exposed to pulsating hot gas and reflected sonic energy. Dried product is withdrawn from the dryer.
