SUMMARY:Visualizing a Particle-based Simulation of an Aggregate Drum Dryer
  for Hot Mix Asphalt Production
DESCRIPTION:Posters, Scientific Visualization & Data Analytics Showcase\n\
 nVisualizing a Particle-based Simulation of an Aggregate Drum Dryer for Ho
 t Mix Asphalt Production\n\nGriffin, Hummel, Hobbs, Messmer, Leaf...\n\nAs
 phalt pavement consists of various sizes of aggregates coated with liquid 
 bitumen binder and is commonly used for road construction.  Producing the 
 asphalt mixture involves heating and drying the aggregates in a rotary dru
 m dryer before the bitumen is added.  This process is very energy intensiv
 e, so thermal efficiency is a key consideration in equipment design. Using
  particle-based simulations engineers can investigate the effects of diffe
 rent drum geometries and process conditions to improve dryer efficiency.  
 Improvements to the drying process provide economic benefit to the plant o
 perator in the form of lower fuel costs as well as environmental benefits 
 in reduced emissions.  Visualizing the simulation data provides engineers 
 with greater insight into the drying process and permits more effective an
 d efficient designs.  In this explanatory visualization, we leverage sever
 al platforms and scientific visualization tools to illustrate the asphalt 
 drying process in a very high-fidelity, photo-realistic animation.\n\nTag:
