Dehydration Characteristics of Whole Lemons in a Convective Hot Air Dryer
In this study, whole lemons were dried using a laboratory convective hot air dryer and the effects of drying temperature on dehydration behaviour and mass transfer characteristics of the lemons were investigated. The drying experiments were conducted using air temperatures of 50, 60 and 75 °C and air velocity of 1 m/s. It was observed that the drying temperature affected the drying time and...
متن کاملOptimization of the spray application technology in bay laurel (Laurus nobilis).
Bay laurel is an evergreen, commercially grown and expensive ornamental pot plant, which is susceptible to different pests like aphids, scale and lerp insects, thrips, caterpillars of codling moth and sooty moulds. Recently, caterpillars of the Mediterranean carnation leafroller (Cacoecimorpha pronubana) cause more and more problems. These pests can lead to important financial losses for the gr...
متن کاملdrying kinetics of oyster mushroom (pleurotus ostreatus) in a convective hot air dryer
the objective of this study was to investigate the drying kinetics of oyster mushroom, pleurotus ostreatus mushrooms were dried using a cabinet-type convective dryer. air temperatures of 50, 60 and 70 oc were used for the drying experiments. the experimental drying data were fitted to different theoretical models to predict the drying kinetics. nonlinear regression analysis was performed to rel...
متن کاملHydraulic architecture of leaf venation in Laurus nobilis L
Veins are the main irrigation system of the leaf lamina and an understanding of the hydraulic architecture of the vein networks is essential for understanding leaf function. However, determination of leaf hydraulic parameters is challenging, because for most leaves the vein system is reticulate, contains a hierarchy of different vein sizes, and consists of leaky conduits. We present a new appro...
متن کاملmathematical modeling of onion drying process using hot air dryer
the main purpose of present paper is the modeling of onion drying process and investigation of experimental data of onion drying obtained with using a hot air dryer. therefore some empirical and regression models have been considered to fit experimental data. the investigation of the experimental data shows the onion drying happens only in falling rate zone. the experimental data have been fitt...
