Fluidized bed dryers are widely used in several fields of industry. Sufficiently accurate thermal models provide an opportunity to increase the effectiveness of dryers. The required size of a fluidized bed dryer can be defined with the application of mathematical model. This work is aimed at developing mathematical model to investigate the influence of operating parameters in a fluidized bed dryer using volumetric heat transfer coefficient. After the defining the input parameters of the differential equations, the required entry length of the dryer which effective heat and mass transfer between gas and particles takes place can be estimated. The correct estimation of the entry length is useful in optimal design of a fluidized bed dryer. Using the model the impact of the drying parameters can be determined to the required length.
