Estimation of the Latent Heat of Adsorption and Rewetting During Deep Bed Grain Cooling

The latent heat of adsorption (LHA) for barley has been estimated for the first time. The experiments were performed on a laboratory scale. The latent heat of adsorption estimated from the experiment is found to be 2485.5, 2393.1 and 2286.5 kJ/kg at 10, 14.8 and 19.2°C. The laboratory results showed a similar level of rewetting to the field data (lower than Deep Bed Simulation). The adsorption isotherms for barley should be measured as they are not currently available in the literature.
