Abstract Microwave vacuum drying experiments were performed on a laboratory scale dryer with a two-level porosity material: a packed bed of porous alumina beads. The incident microwave power and the vacuum pressure level were fixed, the main varying parameters being the beads diameter and porosity, and the mean pore diameter. The drying kinetics and the evolution of the product temperature are presented. The drying kinetics can be divided into two main periods. The first one corresponds to the drying from the bed voids according to evaporation mechanism that we describe with a stagnant film law. The second one corresponds to the drying from the particle pores and we divide it into two parts: we suggest that the former is dominated by capillarity driven moisture transport, and the latter is limited by the desorption kinetics of the few water layers left. 相似文献

A multiple porous draft tube spouted bed (MPDTSB) was used to carry out drying of Ragi (Eleusine coracana), Barley, and Wheat grains. Batch experiments were conducted under varied conditions of initial moisture contents of grains, air inlet temperatures, and airflow rates. The draft tube parameters and fluid inlet sizes were also varied in the study. The results indicated that MPDTSB has the potential to be used for scale up to large-scale solids drying. In addition, two single porous draft tube spouted beds (SPDTSBs) were used for comparison with MPDTSB; the batch drying times in the MPDTSB were found to be lower when compared to those in SPDTSB under identical operating conditions. 相似文献

To develop a highly efficient drying technique for sea cucumber, the effects of different drying methods on the drying procedure and product quality were investigated. FD could lead to the best quality but took the longest time, and AD product quality was too poor. VMD was introduced to combine with FD to get acceptable quality and reduce drying time. In order to get optimal technique parameters, an RSA experiment was carried out. The optimal technique parameters of combination drying of FD-VMD were 45% conversion point, 20–30 kPa chamber pressure, and 350–450 W microwave power. Compared with Freeze Drying (FD), Air Drying (AD)-Vacuum Microwave Drying (VMD) could reduce the drying time to half and maintain good product quality. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of different microwave drying techniques on the drying kinetics and product quality of dried green soybean. Experiments were conducted using microwave vacuum drying (MVD), pulse-spouted vacuum microwave drying (PSMVD), pulse-spouted microwave drying (PSMD), and microwave freeze drying (MFD). Parameters of apparent density, color, processing temperature, expansion ratio, rehydration ratio, texture, and microstructure of the dried products were determined. The results showed that the MFD green soybean had a small change on bright color, compared with the fresh samples, but the drying time was the longest among the four methods. The bright color value of PSMVD/PSMD/MVD, respectively, was 79.77, 71.43, and 55.45, and drying time of them was slightly different. The PSMVD/PSMD showed advantages over MVD by improving the product quality. 相似文献

The present work was aimed at investigating the applicability of the proposed correlation equations that link the coefficients of the thin‐layer equations. Materials of different properties were chosen and dried in four types of laboratory dryers. The experimental data were approximated applying the commonest thin‐layer equations: the Lewis equation, the modified Page's model, and Fick's second law. The best match was achieved with the modified Page's model. The applicability of the stated literature correlations was confirmed. Irrespective of the match between measuring data (X = f(t)) and Lewis equation, the evaluated drying constant K allowed evaluation of the parameters of the employed two‐parameter models. 相似文献

Modified literature models were successfully applied to simulate the evolution of the average solvent content (ethanol) of potassium chloride bed during vacuum contact drying with intermittent stirring. Our new modeling approach incorporated the following modifications: the introduction of a jacketed vessel heat transfer coefficient and an accumulation term for the heating wall temperature; the application of alternate static bed and stirred bed conditions; and modeling of all the three drying phases, namely the constant rate phase, the transition phase, and the falling rate phase. Moreover, several validation experiments were carried out with different operating conditions to identify the values of the unknown model parameter. The optimal stirring conditions were investigated by calculating total drying times for different sequences of stirring and no stirring periods. 相似文献

In this article, the quality changes of the granular fruits and vegetables dried by vacuum microwave drying, freeze drying, hot air drying, and combined hot air-vacuum microwave drying are investigated, and the quality parameters compared on the basis of vitamin C and chlorophyll contents, shrinkage and rehydration capacity, color, texture, and microstructure changes. The quality parameters of products dried by vacuum microwave drying are slightly lower than those obtained by freeze drying, but much better than those obtained using conventional hot air drying. The quality characteristics of product dried by combined hot air-vacuum microwave are significantly improved compared to those simply hot air-dried. 相似文献

Atmospheric freeze drying (AFD) in a vibro-fluidized bed dryer coupled with an adsorbent and multimode heat input is proposed for dehydration of food products at lower cost than the traditional freeze-drying process under vacuum. The aim of this project is to study the proposed AFD system using a vortex tube to produce low-temperature dry air, an alternative for producing dried food products of high quality. An experimental setup was designed and built to permit simultaneous application of convection, conduction, and radiation heat input to the drying material above its freezing point to ensure sublimation. A parametric evaluation over a broad range of possible parameter values was carried out using cubic-shaped potato and carrot as model heat-sensitive products. The influence of various system parameters on drying kinetics, quality, and functional properties of the dried products (color, rehydration properties, and morphology) were investigated. Comparison between physical quality and drying characteristics of the AFD system with AFD using fixed bed, fluidized bed dryer, and also with traditional vacuum freeze drying were carried out to investigate the viability of this new system. Results indicate that proposed system is an alternative to reduce the process time as well as to maintain the product quality at lower cost. 相似文献

Experimental investigation on drying of ragi (Eleusine corocana) in a fluidized bed has been attempted covering the operating parameters such as temperature, flow rate of the drying medium, and solids holdup. The drying rate was found to increase significantly with increase in temperature and marginally with flow rate of the heating medium and to decrease with increase in solids holdup. The duration of constant rate period was found to be insignificant, considering the total duration of drying and the entire drying period was considered to follow falling rate period. The drying rate was compared with various simple exponential time decay models and the model parameters were evaluated. The Page model was found to match the experimental data very closely with the maximum root mean square of error (RMSE) less than 2.5%. The experimental data were also modeled using Fick's diffusion equation and the effective diffusivity coefficients were estimated. The effective diffusion coefficient was found to be within 5.7 to 14 × 10?11 m2/s for the range of experimental data covered in the present study with RMSE less than 5%. 相似文献

A diffusion-bared mathdcal model is prswmed for batch drying of corn in a novel rotating jn spouted bcd device under constant as well as intermitted drying conditions. Such a device is suited for drying of large partides (e.g. grains, beam, seed, etc) for which internal heat and mass tranfer rates control the drying kinetics. Based on literature data for moisture diffusivities the model predictions are compared with experimental data for both continous and time-dependend air supply and/or heat input. Effects of dcvant parameter are evaluated and discussed in the light of potential pnrctieal applications. 相似文献

Vacuum microwave dehydration characteristics and drying kinetics of potato slices were evaluated using a laboratory-scale dryer. The test materials were placed on a rotating tray to allow uniform exposure to the microwave field. The effect of drying conditions on the drying characteristics was investigated. As expected, higher drying rates were obtained with higher microwave power and lower vacuum levels. The effect of vacuum pressure on drying rate was not as significant as that of microwave power. The Henderson & Pabis model provided better simulation of the drying curves for potato slices. Empirical models are presented for the drying rate constant as a function of the microwave power and vacuum pressure for potato slices under the range of operating conditions tested. 相似文献

A lab model vacuum-assisted solar dryer was developed to study the drying kinetics of tomato slices (4, 6, and 8 mm thicknesses) compared with open sun drying under the weather conditions of Montreal, Canada. The drying study showed that the time taken for drying of tomato slices of 4, 6, and 8 mm thicknesses from the initial moisture content of 94.0% to the final moisture content of around 11.5 ± 0.5% (w.b.) was 360, 480, and 600 min in vacuum-assisted solar dryer and 450, 600, and 750 min in open sun drying, respectively. During drying, it was observed that the temperature inside the vacuum chamber was increased to 48°C when the maximum ambient temperature was only 30°C. The quality of tomato slices dried under vacuum-assisted solar dryer was of superior quality in terms of color retention and rehydration ratio. The drying kinetics using thin-layer drying models and the influence of weather parameters such as ambient air temperature, relative humidity, solar insolation, and wind velocity on drying of tomato slices were evaluated. 相似文献
