Ziccum LaPa Cloud Surrogate Supplement

Result

Advanced simulation models and development tools were developed and refined to analyse, optimise, and support the scale-up of an innovative drying process. These included a System Dynamics model, computational fluid dynamics simulations using OpenFOAM, and thermal simulations using COMSOL Multiphysics. In addition, new design concepts such as an isokinetic junction and multi-column configurations were developed and evaluated. The project results improve process understanding, support the design of future industrial systems, and provide a solid foundation for further technology development and industrial implementation.
