Mathematical modelling and experimental investigation of tropical fruits drying.
Author(s) : KARIM M. A., HAWLADER M. N. A.
Type of article: Article
Summary
A mathematical model has been developed to solve the heat and mass transfer equations for convective drying of tropical fruits. The model takes into account shrinkage of material and moisture content and shrinkage dependent effective diffusivity. Heat and mass transfer equations for the dryer, termed as equipment model, have also been developed to determine the changes in drying potential of the drying medium during drying.
