Model based analysis of the drying of a single solution droplet in an ultrasonic levitator
A model for the drying of a single solution droplet into a solid, dense particle is presented and simulations are made to achieve a more fundamental understanding of the single droplet drying process relevant in connection with spray drying processes. Model predictions of drying behaviour are compared to data for the drying of aqueous solutions of maltodextrin DE 15 and trehalose from experiments conducted using an ultrasonic levitator.
Model predictions are in good agreement with the experimental data, indicating that the model describes the most important physical phenomena of the process.
