Rotary Kiln IspatGuru
The size of a rotary kiln is not only a function of capacity, but also of the amount of heat which can be generated inside the rotary kiln from the volatizing and/or combustion of the material. The diameter and length of the rotary kiln are calculated based on the maximum feed rate, the required retention time, and what the bed profile (how full of material is in the rotary kiln) is required
