Description: A new machine utilizing the principle of particle-particle heat transfer to dry food grains by conduction heating was designed and a prototype constructed. In this machine, sand was first heated and then metered into a closed annular space along with a regulated mass of grain corn. The two granular media were then thoroughly mixed for a controlled time period and later separated. Heated grain was dispersed into holding tanks and the particulate medium (sand) was re circulated for reheating. The machine was built to accomplish all the above steps in a continuous flow operation. Results indicated that the steady-state temperature conditions are easily achievable ataheating efficiency of81%. On an average 3-4% of moisture was removed from grain corn processed at an initial moisture content of 30%wetbasis.
