Abstract An understanding of heat transfer in a bladed mixer is important for drying pharmaceutical drug crystals. This study presents thermal imaging experiments the particle bed surface to investigate how impeller speed influences rate and uniformity transfer. Next, process simulated using discrete element method. The properties are lumped into an effective conductivity, that calibrated one speed. simulations show same trends generally agree well all agitated beds. However, obtain good...
Intermittent mixing, alternating agitation and no agitation, is an approach to maintain a high drying rate while minimizing particle breakage in agitated filter of the active pharmaceutical ingredient. In this study, effect intermittent mixing on heat transfer particles was examined using DEM simulations. The ratio (the fraction time agitator on) cycle number on/off cycles) represent extent allocation respectively. It observed that as increases from static bed, temperature uniformity...
