This research aims to study the characteristic of paddy motion under the hot air pulse flow in the drying tube length 2 m by using the kinematics motion analysis. The equations of paddy motion are analyzed to evaluate the pattern of paddy motion, total distance that the paddy can travel through the drying tube and Reynolds number of paddy. Results found that Model I, II and III consume the paddy travel time of approximately 1.3, 5.0 and 2.2 s and give a total distance of 2.6, 2.7 and 2.5 m and they have maximum travel velocity of 4.12, 1.37 and 1.85 m/s respectively. When considering the Reynolds number, the models I, II and III give the most values from similar calculations with 1,837, 1,816 and 1,821 respectively. Based on various parameters from all of models, Model III was the closest characteristic of paddy motion to the actual movement in the system.
