Summary:Based on the mechanism of mass and heat transfer of the particles and air in drying tube, the mathematics model of pneumatic drying process was established which referred to straw fuel in straight horizontal tube, and the equations were solved by Runge-Kutta integration method. Then, by analyzing the thermal factors of gas flow drying，the most important factor in gas flow drying on straw fuel was summed up which was the mass of hot air. The method of orthogonal experimental design was used to analyze the whole process of gas flow drying, and primary and secondary roles led to the conclusion, which were the mass of hot air first , the equivalent diameter of the fuel granule and the temperature of hot air.
