The first model was semi-empirical in nature whilst the second employed the near equilibrium simulation approach. This study was considered the prediction of grain moisture and temperature changes at any point in a bin and at any time when drying was being carried out. The inlet air conditions were changed continuously during the test periods. A system of equations for prediction these changes was presented, methods of determining the relevant physical properties were considered, and step by step solution by means of a digital computer is given. The computed results were compared with experimental observations UR - http://203.159.5.9/ait-thesis/detail.php?q=B19950 ER -
