Popis:	This work presents methods for synthesizing drying process models for particulate solids that combine prior knowledge with artificial neural networks. The inclusion of prior knowledge is investigated by developing two applications with the data from two indirect rotary steam dryers. The first application consisted in the modelling of the drying process of soya meal in a batch indirect rotary dryer, The external and internal mass transfer resistances were associated in the hidden layer of the network to linear and sigmoidal nodes, respectively. The second application consisted in the modelling of the drying process of soya meal in a continuos indirect rotary dryer. The model was constructed using the Semi-parametric Design Approach. The model predicts the evolution of solid moisture content and temperature as a function of the solid position in the dryer. The results show that the hybrid model performs better than the pure “ black box” neural network and default models. They also shows that prior ...
