ROTARY kilns are primarily heat exchangers in which solids are heated to reaction temperature by hot gases flowing in the freeboard above the bed. The heat transfer is complex because it involves radiative ex- change in the freeboard space as well as gas and solids convection, and conduction within the bed. However

An experimental study of convective heat transfer from hot air to the solid charge and walls in a non-fired rotary kiln is reported. Ottawa sand was heated by passing it counter-current to a flow of preheated air in a 2.5 m × 0.19 m I.D. rotary kiln. Axial temperature profiles of gas, wall and solids were measured.
2009. Heat transfer mechanism is complicated in case of rotary kiln as it includes conduction, convection and radiation at a same time. It is necessary to solve the governing heat transfer model numerically due to multi-dimensional nature of the model which takes in to account the thermal heat conduction in radial and circumferential direction.

ROTARY KILN Granular heat transfer modeling has a great importance in the material processing field. For example, rotary kilns are the most popular equipment dedicated to the drying, heating and coating of granular materials. A better understanding of the physical mechanisms [37, 38, 39]
Hence, we extend previous work on gas–solid flow in fluidized beds (Jain et al., 2004) to heat transfer in rotary kilns.

Solving heat transfer problems within a rotary kiln may however be considered a rather challenging task. The high temperatures, the freeboard mixture of solid particles and gases, the sliding and mixing bed material as well as the rotation of the surrounding kiln wall all complicates the computations.

Heat transfer in rotary kilns. The heat exchange in a rotary kiln consists of six main paths, involving radiative, convective and conductive heat exchange between the gas, wall and the bed (Fig. 2.1 a). Although all these fluxes will be present for both a directly and indirectly heated kiln, the main heat source will be the gas for a direct ...

Rotary kilns are commonly employed to thermally process granular materials. While kiln rotation promotes particle mixing and heat transfer, it also leads to de-mixing through segregation of finer or denser particles, creating a "kidney" within the bed. Experience and experimental evidence indicate that rotation-induced mixing is insufficient to eliminate radial thermal gradients within …
