    This project was born because in the company PRODEGEL S.A. It is necessary to obtain the efficiency of a tunnel-type gelatin dryer since at the moment it presents problems of humidity in the product, presenting on some occasions of the day a humidity greater than that required and on others a lower percentage of humidity. The experimental method was used and the parameters with which the dryer worked were collected, where the humidity value was obtained at 10.3 percent at the exit of the equipment, this corresponding to days in which the dryer worked with an approximate load of 12 kg/min in wet product, according to the data collected it is estimated that the equipment removes 57.2 percent of moisture from the gelatin noodle, that is to say that more than half of the input product was water, obtaining a flow of gelatin of 5.14 kg/min of dry product, the dryer band worked with a speed of 9.5 cm/min, using a total of 3 hours and 32 minutes to leave the noodle to be crushed. As a result, a yield of the noodle drying process corresponding to 56.31 percent was obtained. When analyzing the gelatin noodle according to the quality department, the noodle should have a humidity percentage of 11 percent at the exit of the dryer, and this percentage was obtained by raising the speed of the belt from 9.5 cm/min to 11 .5 cm/min, obtaining satisfactory results.

    Análisis térmico de un prototipo de cámara de secado estática por convección y radiación de 1000 W para uso semiindustrial
    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ingeniería Civil y Mecánica, Carrera de Ingeniería Mecánica, 2021-04) Criollo Camacho, William Rene; Cabrera Anda, Santiago Paúl
    The present research work is focused on the temperature distributions inside the drying chamber with a radiation heat source that in this case four infrared lamps of 250 W each are used. In order to obtain these temperatures, experimental analyses are carried out in the prototype of the chamber and also with a modeling of the dryer simulations were obtained in the software, in a transient state with time intervals of 180, 240 and 688 seconds. The methodology proposed for the study was software simulation, first verifying the modeling of the chamber, then proceeding with the steps for data entry such as: parameters for the type of analysis, type of fluid (air), initial conditions, selection of materials, boundary conditions, amount of heat and radiating surfaces, also through calculations of the parameters of heat transfer inside the chamber by natural convection, forced and radiation, with their combinations reaching 771 W, also obtained the variation of stored energy for the air of 15.65 W. Applying energy balance, the losses by convection to the outside are determined, which reach 25 W. The combined results of the heat transfer methods help to calculate the efficiency of the chamber in vacuum (without load) and considering only the heating of the air inside gives us 6.4 percent. In the experimental and simulated time intervals analyzed, the temperature distributions in the middle and lower part of the chamber reach maximum values of 47 and 58.75 degrees Celsius, respectively.
