In this study, a software has been developed to predict the optimum drying conditions of viscose based yarn bobbins for drying in a pressurised hot air dryer. For this purpose, firstly, a suitable drying model has been found in defining the drying behaviour of bobbins using the experimental drying behaviour. After that, additional regression analyses have been made to take into account the effect of drying parameters on drying. Then, a software has been developed using Visual Basic programming language. With the aid of this software, optimum drying conditions for drying time and energy consumption can be obtained.
