If material flow through the drying hopper is slowed down (a decrease in material through-
put), the difference in temperature readings between T1 and T5 will steadily decrease. T4
and T5 will gradually align towards the T1 temperature since the slower moving material
will absorb more of the drying heat.
If material flow is stopped (no material is leaving the hopper) and prior to any energy saving
functions in the dryer being engaged, the temperature readings from T4, T5 and T6 will
begin to increase and align with the process temperature. The stopped material now has
time to more fully absorb drying heat.
If material flow increases (an increase in throughput), the difference in temperature read-
ings between T1 through T5 will steadily increase. The faster moving material now spends
less time being heated so the difference in temperatures read at the bottom of the hopper
compared to the top, will display a greater spread.
NOTE:
An increase in the difference between T1 through T5 (as described above) can also be
the result of an increase in the quantity of reground material being dried in the hopper.
Increasing the quantity of regrind decreases the bulk density of the material being dried and
increases the flow of material.
