Abstract: The smart dryer testbed at Sagamore lab is a highly modulized oven dryer. We aim to reduce energy consumption during drying processes by optimizing how the order of various drying technologies is used, and what parameters to operate on. Slot jet reattachment nozzles (SJR) modules and infrared (IR) modules are first investigated, while more drying modules will be included in the future.
