Waste heat recovery in commercial gas-fired tumble dryers

- Summary

Abstract

Abstract Thermal drying is energy intensive due to the unavoidable thermodynamic constraint of supplying sufficient energy to evaporate the water (hfg > 2000 kJ kg−1). Textile dryers only use about half (∼55%) of the total input energy for drying. To reduce the wasted energy, exhaust gas recirculation and waste heat recovery using a recuperative heat exchanger are investigated numerically and experimentally. The two methods aim to recover energy from the exhaust stream typically at T
