Rotary drum dryers operate based on the principle of direct or indirect heat transfer. In direct heat transfer, the material comes into direct contact with the drying medium, typically hot air or gases. Indirect heat transfer involves the use of a heat transfer medium, such as steam or thermal oil, which indirectly heats the material.
This study delves into the evaluation of heat and mass transfer dynamics between coffee and drying air within the innovative dryer. Characterization of raw materials precedes a series of drying experiments under varied conditions, forming the basis for a mathematical two-phase model elucidating the underlying dynamics of the drying process.

Likewise in rotary cascading dryers, heat transfer to the raining curtain of particles is not solely by convection with the crossflowing air stream; gas radiation is important, and some heat …
Each material responds uniquely to drying. In general, however, those with a moisture content higher than 30% can be problematic, leading to sticking issues on the dryer's interior. Rotary dryers are still an option when this occurs, but some level of preconditioning may be required to bring the moisture content into a more suitable …
Generally, narrow spacing produces high heat transfer between jet locations while large spacing shows high heat transfer at the stagnation points.[27–31] A similar variant also using impinging jets in a rotary dryer, called the roto-aerated dryer, has been reported.[1,2,8] A comparison with a conventional rotary dryer showed that the moisture ...
