Determine the amount of rice husk fuel required to dry 4 tons of paddy from 21% to 14% moisture content. The air temperature for drying is 45 C. The ambient temperature is 30 C while the relative humidity 85%. The recommended airflow rate is 25 cubic meter of air per min-ton of grain. Assume a heating value for rice husk of 3,000 kcal/kg and heat utilization efficiency for the dryer of 0.4.
