Based on numerical solution of the dynamics equations 
of a monodisperse gas suspension with allowance for the interphase 
forces of aerodynamic drag, virtual masses, and the forces caused 
by nonstationary effects around particles, the influence of different 
forms of low-frequency harmonic and anharmonic oscillations of the 
gas on the motion of porous particles in the presence of heat and 
mass transfer accompanied by deepening of the evaporation zone has 
been investigated. The dependences of the solid-phase motion, kinetics 
of evaporation-zone deepening, and heat and mass transfer on the parameters 
of gas oscillations have been established. It is shown that on removal 
of free moisture, oscillations at certain parameters lead to enhancement 
of interphase heat and mass transfer.
