Induction Heating for Drying Food in Rotary Drum Application
Electromagnetic induction heating drum dryer is a kind of equipment widely used for drying food, coffee, soybeans, grains, nuts, peanuts, oil, dry goods and other agricultural and sideline products or food. The heating devices of traditional drum-type frying pans are mostly coal stoves, vaporization furnaces or electric heating devices. The above three heating devices are all indirect heating methods, that is, heat is transferred to the frying pan by means of heat transfer.
Due to the problems of low thermal efficiency and high energy consumption in the traditional drum frying pan, electromagnetic
induction heating drum dryers have appeared on the market, that is, the drum dryer is heated through the principle of electromagnetic induction heating. Its working principle is: drum dryer There are multiple sets of electromagnetic coils on the outside, and the multiple sets of electromagnetic coils generate alternating magnetic fields after passing through the alternating current. Since the drum dryer performs the motion of cutting magnetic field lines in the alternating magnetic field, an alternating current is generated inside the drum dryer. That is, eddy current, which collides and rubs with atoms inside the frying pan at high speed, thereby generating Joule heat for heating. Because the heating source of the electromagnetic drum dryer is the drum dryer itself, it can effectively solve the problem of low thermal efficiency of coal furnaces, vaporization furnaces and electric heating devices.
However, due to the existence of multiple sets of electromagnetic coils, there is a strong alternating magnetic field around the
electromagnetic induction heating drum dryer, and the alternating magnetic field will emit electromagnetic radiation. When multiple electromagnetic drum dryers in the industry work at the same time, the electromagnetic radiation It will damage the internal instruments of the mechanical equipment, thereby affecting the service life of the mechanical equipment. In addition, it is also unfavorable for the operators to work in the electromagnetic radiation environment for a long time. Therefore, it is necessary to reduce the electromagnetic radiation generated by the electromagnetic drum dryer.

Electromagnetic induction heating
Electromagnetic heating is also called electromagnetic induction heating, that is, electromagnetic heating (foreign language: Electromagnetic heating abbreviation: EH) technology. The principle of electromagnetic heating is to generate an alternating magnetic field through the components of the electronic circuit board. That is to say, cutting alternating magnetic lines of force generates alternating current (ie eddy current ) in the metal part of the bottom of the container. The eddy current makes the carriers at the bottom of the container move at high speed and irregularly, and the carriers and atoms collide and rub against each other to generate heat energy. So as to have the effect of heating the item. Because the iron container generates heat by itself, the heat conversion rate is particularly high, up to 95%. It is a direct heating method. Induction cooker , induction cooktop and electromagnetic heating rice cooker are all using electromagnetic heating technology.
Disadvantages of traditional resistance heating
