A fairly rigorous mechanistic model of a continuous fluidized-bed dryer has been developed. It depicts the dynamic interactions between gaseous and solid phases in detail. The performance of the dryer has been simulated numerically based on the model. The effects of the operating parameters on the p

β¦ Synopsis
The work involves experimentation on drying of solids in a continuous fluidized bed dryer covering different variables like bed temperature, gas flow rate, solids flow rate and initial moisture content of solids. The data are modeled using artificial neural networks. The results obtained from artificial neural networks are compared with those obtained using Tanks-in-series model. It was found that results obtained from ANN fit the experimental data more accurately compared to the RTD model with less percentage error. This indicates a better fit of artificial neural networks to experimental data compared to various mathematical models.

In dealing with human nervous system, the sensation of pain is as sophisticated as other physiological phenomena. To obtain an acceptable model of the pain, physiology of the pain has been analysed in the present paper. Pain mechanisms are explained in block diagram representation form. Because of t
