            Abstract : 
On the basis of the mathematical model, the equations have been derived. They are simulated by VB program language. The residence time and the position of a particle at any moment can be defined according to rotational speed of the rotary dryer, radius of the drum, the slope of the drum, wind-force and the particle quality. Simulated results are satisfactory.
