First a brief information about drying is given with determining important properties that effect drying characteristics. Next basic principles of CFD modelling are explained while capabilities of computational processing are presented. A detailed literature survey about CFD studies in convective drying process is then conducted. Finally some sound concluding remarks are listed. It may be concluded that the CFD is a powerful and flexible tool that can be adopted to many different physical situations including complex scenarios results of CFD simulations represent good predictions for fluid-flow heat and mass transfer of various drying methods and those numerical studies can be used for validation and controlling of applicability of new drying systems. © 2023 Elsevier B.V.
