High velocity heated air impinging jets have proved to be very effective to enhance evaporative ink drying especially on the rotary presses for the packaging and converting industry. In this paper, to provide data for ink dryer designers, an investigation has been carried out to obtain the heat and mass transfer coefficients which constitute the evaporative drying of thin ink films. Finally, the theoretical results are compared for the constant rate period and falling rate period with some experimental and theoretical results found to be satisfactory particularly for the drying time.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessNozzleScience & technologyPhysical sciencesTechnologyThermodynamicsMechanicsAn investigation into evaporative ink drying process on forced convective heat and mass transfer under impinging air jetsArticle0004685368000101359136955510.1007/s00231-018-2515-z1432-1181
