In this research, an industrial spray dryer was used and the effects of atomizer speed on the physicochemical properties of milk powder, the textural and sensory characteristics of white cheese made from this milk powder were evaluated. For this purpose, whole milk was converted into powder by using three different speeds (10,000, 11,000, and 12,000 rpm). The results showed that by increasing a...

This paper proposes an indirect-mode forced convection solar dryer equipped with a PV/T air collector. The collector generates both heated and electrical energy, which are used to force in the dryer. Experiments were carried out on selected tomato slices for temperature humidity readings as well masses of dried samples instantaneously recorded two days. A thermal analysis was performed drying s...

Hebel brick is used in making the walls of house. One materials hebel bricks sand. The water content sand will affect quality bricks. less sand, better In order to get with a little content, it necessary do drying process. To overcome this problem, rotary dryer for using renewable energy, particular biomass energy sources was designed. It can be placed quarry near river or beach. designed have ...

In preparation for routine deployment in a network of greenhouse gas monitoring stations, we have designed and tested a simple method for drying ambient air to near or below 0.2 % (2000 ppm) mole fraction H2O using a Nafion dryer. The inlet system was designed for use with cavity ring-down spectrometer (CRDS) analyzers such as the Picarro model G2301 that measure H2O in addition to their princi...

background and objectives: day-shift taxi drivers have a long duration of direct sun exposure. however, the efficiency of this occupational exposure in vitamin d synthesis has not been addressed yet. the aim of this study was to assess the vitamin d status of taxi drivers in tehran, and examine vitamin d status association with some anthropometric and circulating biomarkers. materials and metho...

who offered both ever-insightful comments and encouragement. My committee member Matthew Dryer, who spent much of his time reading and commenting on this project, in spite of his extremely busy schedule. My committee member Leonard Talmy, who gave me support and warm encouragement.

The manufacture of low density paper such as tissue and towel utilizes the creping process that consists of adhesively bonding the paper in wet state onto the surface of a smooth drying cylinder and scraping it off with a blade once the sheet is dry. In this paper, a fracture mechanics description of the creping process is presented. A mechanism of creping process is proposed as a periodic debo...
