Here, the Fluent V6.1.22 CFD package based on the finite volume method is used to transform and solve these equations. The discretization scheme used is hybrid for the convective terms in the momentum and energy equations,and the Simple algorithm for pressure–velocity coupling.The mesh is generated in the Gambit 2.1.6 preprocessor to produce a grid-independent solution. The boundary conditions assume no-slip conditions for velocity, constant temperature on the surface of the material being dried.
