Directly heated rotary drums are used in the drying of pourable goods such as wood chips or strands. Drums are provided with built-in fixtures such as cross fixtures, in order to ensure good heat transmission from the drying gas to the goods. The invention comprises a design for a rotary drum (4) which enables good transmission of drying gas to the goods and which is cheap to produce and assemble in comparison with cross fixtures. According to the invention the built-in fixtures in the rotary drum (4) extend radially in the direction of the middle of the drum, starting from the perimeter, over an area of 60 to 85% of the radius of the rotary drum (4), form at least two pockets, and run, apart from the area close to the perimeter, substantially in the direction of rotation (25), in front of the radial starting from their point of attachment. These radially shaped built-in fixtures enable constant distribution of the goods over the cross-section and are substantially cheaper to manufacture and assemble.

A continuous drier for plywood sheets is provided at its inlet end with a nsing device measuring the width and the spacing of the plywood sheets entering the drier. The values measured by the sensing device are transmitted to a control device, which by means of a calculator regulates the speed of a conveyor transporting the plywood sheets through consecutive sections of the drier in such a manner that the plywood sheets follow each other closely on the conveyor without overlapping. Each of the sections is provided with a heater and a ventilator which blows air over the heater, and the hot air is directed by installations onto the plywood sheets. In order to compensate the effect of the varying speed of the conveyor with respect to the drying of the plywood sheets, the control device preferably controls also the volume of the streams of hot air by varying the speed of the ventilators. This will result in a considerable saving of the driving energy.

Wet plasterboard to be dried is advanced along a path. At an upstream portion of the path, air is heated and directed towards the plasterboard for initial drying of the latter. A portion of the heated air is withdrawn and passed through one section of a heat exchanger whose other section contains water which exchanges heat with the heated air. The heated water is passed through a section of another heat exchanger whose other section contains fresh air which is heated by the heated water. The heated fresh air is directed towards the articles for further drying of the latter at a downstream portion of the path. A portion of the heated fresh air is exhausted and recirculated at the downstream path portion.

A drier for broad articles such as plasterboard has a conveyor in entraining the plasterboard along a drying path in a transport plane and the nozzle boxes for contacting the plasterboard with the drying air have their orifice surfaces inclined to the plasterboard to achieve uniformity of drying in terms of residual moisture content.

A thermal measurement of mass flow is obtained by passing a flowing mass through a hollow passageway, measuring the temperature of the mass at the inlet and at the outlet of said passageway and additionally measuring the heat flow released or absorbed through the walls of the passageway and then determining the mass flow by setting up the heat balance equation on the basis of the obtained data. Preferably, the data are fed into a computer to solve the resulting heat balance equation. The invention also comprises an apparatus wherein temperature sensors are arranged at both ends of a tubular passageway and wherein the heat flow meter comprises concentric wire coils of a thermic resistance material wound around the outer periphery of the tube and an interposed layer of predetermined thickness formed of a material of at most moderate heat conductivity.

A porous paste, especially a plaster paste or slurry for producing sandwich-type plasterboard, is made in a disk-shaped mixer having a rotor rotatable in a mixing chamber by introducing compressed air or other pressurizable gas through a wall or bottom segment directly into the chamber so that the incoming pressurized gas meets the mixture with a shearing action along the wall or bottom.

In order to dry boards, the boards are guided on racks through a drier and brought into contact with drying air in two stages. In a stage A with a higher drying power, the drying air is supplied at a higher temperature and with an at least average humidity, and in the other stage B, it is supplied at an average temperature and with a low humidity. The waste heat of the outgoing air from stage A is used for preheating the drying air. This process should reduce the consumption of primary energy. For that purpose, a process is known that consists of also using the outgoing air condensation heat. This has the inconvenience, however, of requiring substantially more secondary energy, as important air mass flows are required to transfer heat because of the low condensation temperature. Primary energy should be reduced by using condensation heat without substantially increasing secondary energy requirements. According to the invention, the outgoing air from stage A is supplied to stage B through a heat exchanger arranged in the rack of the drier. The drying air of stage B is supplied in counter-current through the drier with a low humidity and temperature, so that the boards are dried in stage B both by condensation heat and by radiant heat. Thus only a reduced mass flow of drying air is required to transfer the condensation heat. The consumption of primary and secondary energy is low. This invention is suitable for drying boards as for buildings and gypsum plain boards or fibre boards.

In the process for making gypsum fiberboard the boards are formed or moldedrom a mash containing calcium sulfate dihydrate and fiberous material. By heating and subsequently cooling the boards the dihydrate is first converted into the hemihydrate and subsequently recrystallized again to the dihydrate. Known processes require day line setting times which are economically disadvantageous. According to the present invention these times are shortened by pulling or drawing water, an aqueous solution or a water containing mixture through the boards after the cooling step. Advantageously a setting accelerating agent can be dissolved in the water. By these features the setting time can be shortened to less than two hours. By addition of a binding agent, e.g. starch, to the fluid drawn through the boards the strength of the boards is increased.

A method of and apparatus for producing gypsum fiber boards includes introducing shaped boards provided of a mash of calcium sulphate dihydrate and fibrous material and possibly additives after dewatering and shaping the mash into at least one pressure vessel and to heat the boards at saturated steam atmosphere to 120.degree.-160.degree. C. over a predetermined period. Thereafter, the boards are allowed to cool down within the pressure vessel to a temperature of about 100.degree. or less before being discharged therefrom.
