Colliding Drops in Spray DryersEnuguri, Venkata Kotaiah Shiva Teja, Karra, Sri Harsha January 2018 (has links)
Spray drying is a process, which produces powders from the fluid state. This type of process is mostly used in the industrial sector. In this process, a liquid slurry is atomized, forming droplets, which are dried with hot air. During spray drying these droplets will interact and upon impact can show different types of interactions; droplet-droplet collisions as well as interactions with partially or completely dried particles, leading to agglomeration. The result of collision gives properties of the dried powder. The focus of the thesis is to investigate the droplet-droplet collision outcomes of WPC 80 (Whey Protein Concentrate 80) and Lactose. Then the effects of the absolute droplet diameter and the droplet diameter ratios are to be determined. Existing experimental setup and Image Processing Tool of MATLAB is used to study the collision outcome. The outcomes are shown in a regime map. The present results are compared with different products result and literature study. It is observed that there is an effect on collision outcome for different droplet size ratios and no effect for absolute droplet diameter.
