Material Transfer in Rotary Kilns

This document contains calculations for determining the particle residence time in a kiln. It provides input values for the kiln's rotational speed, radius, tilt angle, solid material angle of repose, dam height, length, number of length divisions, and volumetric flow rate. The calculations result in a residence time of 3,983 seconds based on a Froude number of 0.00126 and a bed depth to radius ratio that decreases from 0.12 to 0.02 over the length of the kiln.
