Abstract
A tower dryer for seed cotton includes vertically spaced horizontal shelves which alternately extend from opposite ends of the tower dryer to form a zig-zag path. At least some of the shelves have hollow interiors which are supplied with heated air by two ducts at opposed positions across the hollow interior, thereby creating turbulent airflow within the hollow interior.
