Summary of comparison between OUR and CHINESE insulation calculations:

1- 10% overdesign factor in CHINESE calc
2- simplification of cones  as cylinders in CHINESE calc
3- bins, chutes and silo were not included in OUR calc
4- in CHINESE calc, 4 sides of the heat exchanger seem to be insulated, while in OUR calc, bottom side of the heat exchanger is not insulated
5- there is no calc for claddings in CHINESE calc
6- OUR calc includes insulation for the condensate tank but not for the steam and condensate pipes (due to lack info of the length of them), but condensate tank insulation is estimated in OUR calc
7- in CHINESE calc, only steam and condensate pipes are calculated, there is no calc for the condensate tank

Comparison of calculated figures for insulation of different sections of the dryer:
