Drying is one of the main technological processes plant raw materials processing in production dry food products and powders from them. Convective drying most widespread method vegetable materials, which accompanied by high energy costs for process. Increasing efficiency colloidal capillary-porous a 2-zone chamber dryer occurs due to use coolant recirculation between zones installation thick-fi...

Drying kinetics of Malaysian Moringa oleifera leaves was investigated using a convective-air dryer. The drying parameters were: temperature (40, 50, 60, 70 °C), air velocity (1.3 m s–1, 1.7 s–1). process took place in the falling rate period and there an absence constant this experiment. Six mathematical models (Lewis, Henderson Pabis, Wang Singh, Peleg, Page, logarithmic) were selected for des...

This paper discusses the use of various methods to distinguish between slices sweet potato dried in different conditions. The drying conditions varied terms temperature, values were: 60 °C, 70 80 and 90 °C. Examination included instrumental texture analysis using a texturometer digital based on macroscopic images. Classification acquired data involved machine learning techniques types artificia...

The impact of soil moisture on the forecast of a small-scale convective system, and sensitivity of results to the convective parameterization used, are investigated through Eta Model simulations (run in an operational-like setting) of a convective system occurring on 27 May 1997 in Texas. The event was influenced by a southwestward-propagating gravity wave from early morning convection in Arkan...

introduction: one of the most important aspects of food preservation is controlling the moisture of material such as fruits.dryingis considered as important method to controlbacteriasafely using reduction of moisture. the hot air drying method has been widely adopted in manufacturing of conventional dried food.nowadays, infrared radiation (ir) has significant advantages over conventional drying...

In this paper, the results of an experimental study on textile thermal drying after wet processing pretreatments are presented. The mass variation of the studied samples as a function of drying time was determined using the gravimetric method at three different temperatures: 100°C, 110°C and 120°C. A polynomial model was found and established to follow the drying phenomenon of wet textile fabri...
