HPDRYER Application Engineering

Fruit and Vegetable Heat Pump Drying Systems

Industrial drying systems reviewed around material condition, moisture load, batch capacity, loading method, airflow and process control.

Fruit and vegetable materials prepared for heat pump drying
Material and Drying Challenge

Start with the material, not a fixed machine size

Fruit and vegetables can vary in cut size, layer thickness, initial moisture, target moisture and fresh batch quantity. These variables affect moisture removal, airflow path, room loading and temperature and humidity control.

Tray, trolley and rack arrangements should be reviewed with access, loading workflow, insulation and cleaning requirements.

Engineering Inputs

Information used for project review

Material and Moisture

Material form, fresh quantity, initial moisture, target moisture if known, preparation method and product dimensions.

Room and Loading

Tray, trolley or rack loading, room dimensions, batch workflow, access, insulation and available installation space.

Process and Site

Temperature range, local climate, power supply, operating schedule, moisture discharge and control requirements.

HPDRYER closed-loop industrial heat pump drying system
System Configuration

Open-loop or closed-loop may be considered

The suitable arrangement depends on climate, moisture discharge, room conditions, material sensitivity and process objectives. HPDRYER can review heat pump configuration, airflow, drying room layout, temperature and humidity control as one system.

Compare open-loop and closed-loop heat pump drying.
