Application of Grain In-bin Drying Based on Liquid Desiccant Dehumidification Driven by Heat Pump

Based on liquid desiccant dehumidification driven by heat pump, a system of grain in-bin drying was designed to achieve grain drying and storage process safely and efficiently, and the models of grain in-bin drying and each component in this system were established in this paper. This paper simulated the process of drying 200 t grain with initial moisture content of 22% and temperature of 20 ℃ to safe moisture content in Nanchang area in autumn. The influence of air flow rate on drying time and energy consumption were analyzed when the liquid desiccant dehumidification system was adopted for drying, and the optimal air flow rate with the lowest energy consumption was obtained. A hybrid drying system combining natural ventilation and liquid desiccant dehumidification was proposed, under adopting the optimal air flow rate to dry grains, and the influences of natural ventilation drying time on drying time and energy consumption of the system were analyzed. The changes of grain moisture content and COP (coefficient of performance) during drying process under only natural ventilation, liquid desiccant dehumidification and hybrid drying were studied. Simulation results show the liquid desiccant dehumidification system has the lowest energy consumption when the air flow rate is 200 m3·h-1·t-1, and the drying time far lower than the safe drying period is 200 h. The average COP range during drying is 4.3. The moisture of grains couldnt reduce to the requirements of storage in safe drying period when only natural ventilation drying is adopted, and the COP during the drying process was relatively low. The limitation of safe drying period on natural ventilation time should be considered and selecting reasonable natural ventilation time is beneficial to save energy under hybrid drying system. Hybrid drying system could make full use of natural ventilation drying ability in the early stage of drying, and adopt the liquid desiccant dehumidification in the later drying stage to reduce grains to safe moisture content. Above results provided an alternative system for realizing a safe, efficient and energy-saving grain in-bin drying process.
