The drying mechanism of fermented sausages (sucuks) that were cylindrical rod shaped, 40 cm long and 4 cm diameter, during ripening under natural convection conditions at different temperatures (15 to 30°C) was examined. To simulate the experimental drying curves, three empirical models and a diffusional model assuming negligible external mass transfer resistance were evaluated. The drying rate curves of sucuk samples were also simulated taking into account the influence of the external mass transfer resistance. The equation was solved using the trial-and-error solution algorithm developed in this study and the mass transfer coefficient, k c , and effective moisture diffusivity, D eff , were simultaneously determined (1.44 × 10?8 to 1.93 × 10?8 m/s and 4.30 × 10?10 to 6.85 × 10?10 m2/s, respectively). The proposed model considering the effect of external resistance allowed the accurate simulation of the experimental drying data of sucuks at different temperatures. 相似文献

The formulation of a dry fermented sausage has been modified by the addition of carrot dietary fiber (CDF; 3, 6, 9, and 12% [w/w]), and the influence of this change on the drying curves and food microstructure has been studied. The CDF content influenced the initial moisture content as well as the drying rate. A diffusion model taking into account the change in the product formulation has been proposed to simulate the drying curves. A constant mass transfer coefficient of 2.53 × 10?8 m/s was obtained and the effective water diffusivity varied exponentially with the CDF content from 0.99 × 10?11 m2/s (0% CDF) to 2.08 × 10?11 m2/s (12% CDF). The simulation of the drying curves was satisfactory (mean relative error of 0.5 ± 0.1%). No differences in the microstructure related to the proteolytic process were found among samples with different CDF contents. 相似文献

Abstract One of the main problems in drying of meat products is the surface hardening or crusting. The crusted surface layer is harder and less permeable than the inner part of the product. A dramatic increase of hardness during drying in dry-cured meat products has been found when the water content reaches a critical value. The water content can be related with the water activity by sorption isotherms. Therefore, an on-line measurement of the water activity at the surface (aws) could be used by the control system in order to avoid the crusting problem. The aim of this study was to evaluate a methodology for the on-line water activity determination at the lean surface of raw or salted meat during drying and relate this determination with the crusting development. Water activity at the surface was estimated from the heat balance (aws h) in salted meat slices and in unsalted and in salted loin samples. The proposed methodology was able to monitor the aws in both products. The estimated aws h was related with the crusting development in loin samples, showing its potential application in control systems for avoiding the crusting development during the drying of meat products. 相似文献

One- (70°C) and two-temperature regimes (70 and 50°C) were used to dry chilli (Capsicum annuum cv. Huarou Yon) using a laboratory tray dryer compared to conventional sun drying. A pretreatment was done by soaking chilli in antibrowning solutions before drying. It was found that the drying rate of chilli soaked in chemical solutions was increased and the drying period of chilli was decreased. Page's model was found to fit well with the experiment for one- and two-temperature drying using least squares analysis. The highest value of the coefficient of determination (R2 > 0.99), the lowest value of standard error of estimation (SEE < 0.00031), and the lowest value of the mean relative deviation (P < 10%) were obtained. The effective moisture diffusivities of chilli drying at 70°C and two-stage drying were between 6.01–7.22 × 10?10 m2/s and 3.16–3.89 × 10?10 m2/s, respectively. In contrast, the lowest value of effective moisture diffusivity of chilli was obtained by the conventional sun-drying method (0.597 × 10?10 m2/s). The highest value of moisture diffusivity was observed for chilli soaked in sodium metabisulfite (NaMS) mixed with CaCl2 solution for both one- and two-temperature regimes. The color of chilli was improved by using chemical pretreatments, in particular, chilli soaked in NaMS mixed with CaCl2 solution. 相似文献

The aim of this work was to study the influence of pulsed electric field (PEF) on the drying kinetics of apple tissue. Therefore, mathematical models that are commonly used in the literature were applied to describe the process. PEF treatment of the samples was carried out at an intensity of E = 5–10 kV/cm and 10–50 pulse numbers. Subsequently, the apples were convectively dried at 70°C and air velocity of 2 m/s. Based on electrical conductivity measurement, the cell disintegration index Z p was computed. Midilli et al.'s(Drying Technology, Vol. 20, pp. 1503–1513, 2001) model was evaluated as the most adequate to describe the moisture transfer in PEF-treated and intact samples. PEF pretreatment induced a reduction in drying time of up to 12% when 10 kV/cm and 50 pulses were applied. For instance, after 60 min of drying, the dimensionless moisture ratio for PEF-treated (10 kV/cm, 50 pulses) samples was 0.18 compared to 0.26 for the untreated apples. The effective moisture diffusivity, calculated on the basis of the Fick's second law, was 1.04 × 10?9 m/s for intact samples and from 1.09 × 10?9 to 1.25 × 10?9 m2/s for PEF-treated samples at 10 pulses at 5 kV/cm and 50 pulses at 10 kV/cm, respectively. 相似文献

The wood from which xylite is formed in a long-term process undergoes numous changes while still retaining the character of a hygroscopic porous material. To plan the optimal drying schedule of xylite, the permeability coefficient, diffusion coefficient, and surface emission coefficient were determined. The porosity of xylite is low due to the demolished capillary structure; concurrently with the blocked pits, the permeability of xylite is very low, with a permeability coefficient not higher than 2.12 × 10?10 m2/Pa s. The capillary flow of free water is insignificant, allowing the diffusion transport of water to prevail. The diffusion coefficient is considerably influenced by the xylite's density. We confirm a significant increase in the bound water diffusion coefficient as the temperature increased (from 5.5 × 10?12 m2/s at 20°C to 46.3 × 10?12 m2/s at 40°C), and we predict that the activation energy will increase as the moisture content of xylite decreases (approx. 0.63 to 1.05%/% MC changes). As a consequence of the low surface resistance, the surface emission coefficient barely influences the moisture transport below the fiber saturation point.With an appropriate drying schedule, quality dried xylite can be used for various products as an equivalent substitute for dark-colored, high-density woods like ebony. 相似文献

The objectives of this research were to investigate empirical and diffusion models for thin-layer crumb rubber drying for producing STR20 rubber using hot air temperatures of 110–130°C and to study the effect of drying parameters such as inlet drying temperature, volumetric flow rate, and initial moisture content on the quality of dried rubber. Finally, a mathematical drying model for predicting the drying kinetics of crumb rubber was developed using inlet air flow rates of 300–600 m3/min-m3 of crumb rubber (equivalent to 1.8–5.0 m/s) with the crumb rubber thickness fixed at 0.25 m. The average initial moisture content of samples was in the ranges of 40 and 50% dry basis while the desired final moisture content was below 5% dry basis. The results showed that the drying equation of crumb rubber was highly related to the inlet air temperature, while the drying constant value was not proportional to the initial moisture content. Consequently, the experimental data were formulated using nine empirical models and the analytical solution of moisture ratio equation was developed by Fick's law of diffusion. The result showed that the simulated data best fitted the logarithmic model and was in reasonable agreement to the experimental data. The effective diffusion coefficient of crumb rubber was in the range of 1.0 × 10?9 to 2.15 × 10?5 m2/s corresponding to drying temperatures between 40 and 150°C, respectively. The effects of air recirculation, inlet drying temperature, initial moisture contents, air flow rate, and drying strategies on specific energy consumption and quality of samples were reported. The experiments were conducted using two different drying strategies as follows: one-stage and two-stage drying conditions. The results showed that initial moisture content and air flow rates significantly affected the specific energy consumption and quality of rubber, while the volumetric air flow rate acted as dominant effect to the specific energy consumption. The simulated results concluded that the percentage of recycled air between 90 and 95% provided the lowest specific energy consumption as compared to the others. 相似文献

ABSTRACT Dehydrated salted meat is widely used in Brazil as a very important source of animal protein. The main objective of this kind of processing is water removal. initially by osmotic pressure changes and then by drying, resulting in a product with intermediate moisture levels. In this work, mass transfer and salt diffusion in pieces of meat submitted to wet and dry salting were studied. Slabs of beef m. trapezius with an infinite plate geometry were salted in a NaCl saturated solution or in a dry salt bed, at two temperatures (10 and 20°C) and different time exposures (120 min and 96 hours). Equilibration studies were extended up to six days. It was observed that water loss increased with salt uptake, for increasing periods of times. At 20°C the moisture loss was higher than it was at 10°C in both salting processes. On the other hand, the kinetics of salt uptake and moisture loss were of greater importance in the process of dry salting than in that of wet salting. The salt diffusion coefficient for wet salting was 0.26 × 10?10m2/s at20°C and 0.25 × 10?10 m2/s at 10°C and for the dry salting the values were 19.37 × 10?10 m2/s at 20°C and 17.21 × 10?10 m2/s at 10°C. 相似文献

The drying characteristics of yam slices under different constant relative humidity (RH) and step-down RH levels were studied. A mass transfer model was developed based on Bi-Di correlations containing a drying coefficient and a lag factor to describe the drying process. It was validated using experimental data. Results showed that the drying air with constant RH levels of 20, 30, and 40%, temperature of 60°C, and air velocity of 1.5 m/s had an insignificant effect on drying time. This phenomenon was likely attributed to the fact that higher RH led to a rapid increase in sample’s temperature. The higher sample temperature could provide an additional driving force to water diffusion and thereby promote the moisture movement, which could minimize the negative effect of lower the drying rate in the initial drying stage. Applying air with 40% RH for 15 min in the initial stage achieved the desired color and reduced the drying time by 25% compared to the drying time under continuous dehumidification from an initial RH of 40%. Using the developed Bi-Di correlation, the estimated Biot number, effective moisture diffusivity, and mass transfer coefficient ranged from 0.1024 to 0.1182, 1.1133 × 10?10 to 8.8144 × 10?9 m2/s, and 1.8992 × 10?9 to 1.7364 × 10?7 m/s, respectively. A rather high correlation coefficient of determination (R2 between 0.9871 and 0.9971) was determined between the experimental and predicted moisture contents. The present findings contribute to a better understanding of the effect of relative humidity on drying characteristics. The developed Bi-Di correlation provided a new method to determine the effective diffusivity of moisture in drying. 相似文献

Abstract Air drying of camu-camu slices was performed in order to estimate the effect of air temperature on the kinetics of ascorbic acid thermal degradation. Moisture variation during the air drying process was monitored gravimetrically by weighing the trays at predetermined time intervals. The experimental points were adjusted by Fick's diffusion model and by the Page empirical model. The effective diffusion coefficient (Deff) ranged from 8.48 × 10?10 to 1.34 × 10?9 m2/s.The ascorbic acid content was evaluated in samples taken during the drying process using Iodine titration, and the results modeled by the Weibull equation. Concerning ascorbic acid retention the best drying condition required air at 50°C. The ascorbic acid retention was 78%, when the moisture content of the product reached 10% (wet basis). 相似文献

Drying is applied for moisture removal to allow safe and extended storage. Red pepper (Capsicum annum) samples were heat pump dried in fluidized bed at different air temperatures. A slightly modified solution of the diffusion equation was used to describe the kinetics and drying rates of red pepper. The model well described the low- and medium-temperature drying processes. The determined effective mass diffusivities varied from 0.7831 to 4.0201 × 10?9 m2/s and increased consistently with drying air temperature. The mass diffusivity was correlated to temperature by linear regression with coefficient of determination equal to 0.999 and negligible standard error. 相似文献

The effects of pretreatments such as citric acid and hot water blanching and air temperature on drying and rehydration characteristics of red kidney bean seeds were investigated. Drying experiments were carried out at four different drying air temperatures of 50°C, 60°C, 70°C, and 80°C. It was observed that drying and rehydration characteristics of bean seeds were greatly influenced by air temperatures and pretreatments. Four commonly used mathematical models were evaluated to predict the drying kinetics of bean seeds. The Weibull model described the drying behaviour of bean seeds at all temperatures better than the other models. The effective moisture diffusivities (Deff) of bean seeds were determined using Fick's law of diffusion. The values of Deff were between 1.25 × 10?9 and 3.58 × 10?9 m2/s. Activation energy was estimated by an Arrhenius-type equation and was determined as 24.62, 21.06, and 20.36 kJ/mol for citric acid, blanch, and control samples, respectively. 相似文献

The effect of microwave output power and sample amount on effective moisture diffusivity were investigated using microwave drying technique on round okra (Hibiscus esculentus L.). The various microwave output powers ranging from 180 to 900 W were used for the determination of effective moisture diffusivity for constant sample amount of 100 g okra. To examine the effect of sample amount on effective moisture diffusivity, the samples in the range of 25–100 g were dried at constant microwave output power of 360 W. By increasing the microwave output powers and decreasing the sample amounts, the effective moisture diffusivity values ranged from 20.52 × 10?10 to 86.17 × 10?10 and 34.87 × 10?10 to 11.91 × 10?9 m2/s?1, respectively. The modeling studies were performed to illustrate the relationship between the ratio of the microwave output power to sample amount and effective moisture diffusivity. The relationship between drying constant and effective moisture diffusivity was also estimated. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to dry–wet distillers grains and centrifuged solubles and to examine the effect of two different drying media, superheated steam and hot air, at different drying temperatures (110, 130, and 160°C), moisture contents (5–30% wb), and percentages of solubles’ presence (0 or 100%) on some thermophysical properties of laboratory-prepared corn/wheat dried distillers co-products, including geometric mean diameter (dg), particle density (ρp), bulk density (ρb), bulk porosity (?b), specific heat (C), effective thermal diffusivity (αeff), and bulk thermal conductivity (λb). The values of dg of corn/wheat dried distillers co-products ranged from 0.358 ± 0.001 to 0.449 ± 0.001 mm. Experimental values of ρp, ρb, and ?b varied from 1171 ± 6 to 1269 ± 3 kg m?3, from 359 ± 7 to 605 ± 5 kg m?3, and from 0.54 ± 0.01 to 0.71 ± 0.01 kg m?3, respectively. The values of αeff were between 0.58 × 10?7 and 0.93 × 10?7 m2 s?1. The calculated values of C ranged from 1887 ± 11 to 2599 ± 19 J kg?1 K?1, and the values of λb of corn/wheat dried distillers co-products ranged from 0.06 ± 0.01 to 0.09 ± 0.01 W m?1 K?1. Multiple linear regression prediction models were developed to predict the changes in dg, ρp, ρb, ?b, C, αeff, and λb of laboratory-prepared corn/wheat dried distillers co-products with different operational factors. 相似文献

A continuous vacuum drying method was used to develop low-fat tortilla chips with good sensory properties. To better understand the process, drying models were developed to determine the effects of drying thickness and temperature on drying rate. Drying rates were determined at three conduction plate temperatures (80, 90, and 100°C) and three product thicknesses (0.8, 1.5, and 2.3 mm). An effective diffusion model and semi-empirical models were used to fit the data. In addition, a model was developed from the drying rate curves that incorporated a drying coefficient [k(t)] that varied with time and could be described by a two-term Lorentzian model. All models had good agreement between experimental data and predicted data, with R 2 > 0.98. With consideration of other goodness-of-fit indicators (sum of squared errors [SSE] and χ2), the Page and variable coefficient models provided the best fit. The average effective moisture diffusivity was calculated using nonlinear regression and ranged from D eff = 1.19 to 1.54 × 10?9 m2/s. D eff increased with temperature and was described by an Arrhenius equation with E a = 14.1 kJ/mol. Continuous vacuum drying of a presteamed corn dough can be used to produce low-fat tortilla chips with high crispness and acceptable sensory properties. The drying rate models presented in this study will help predict appropriate drying times, optimize process conditions, and better understand the mechanisms of drying. 相似文献

Abstract A conveyor-belt dryer for picrite has been modeled mathematically in this work. The necessary parameters for the system of equations were obtained from regression analysis of thin-layer drying data. The convective drying experiments were carried out at temperatures of 40, 60, 80, and 100°C and air velocities of 0.5 and 1.5 m/sec. To analyze the drying behavior, the drying curves were fitted to different semi-theoretical drying kinetics models such as those of Lewis, Page, Henderson and Pabis, Wang and Singh, and the decay models. The decay function (for second order reactions) gives better results and describes the thin layer drying curves quite well. The effective diffusivity was also determined from the integrated Fick's second law equation and correlated with temperature using an Arrhenius-type model. External heat and mass transfer coefficients were refitted to the empirical correlation using dimensionless numbers (J h , J D = m · Re n ) and their new coefficients were optimized as a function of temperature. The internal mass transfer coefficient was also correlated as a function of moisture content, air temperature, and velocity. 相似文献

The characteristics of moisture removal and selected physical properties during the dehumidifier-assisted drying of model food gel systems like agar and gellan gels were studied. The effect of gel forming ingredients/nutrients like FeSO4 (0.05%), whey protein concentrate (WPC; 5%), and flaxseed powder (FSP; 5%) were investigated with an overall intention of developing a delivery system for nutrients as a convenience food. Gellan and agar gels were prepared at concentrations of 1, 2, and 3% (w/w) and subjected to drying at a low temperature of 40°C in a dehumidifier-assisted dryer up to 12 h. The different quality parameters that were determined included the extent of shrinkage, moisture content, textural parameters, and the diffusion coefficient. Agar gels possessed higher moisture ratios compared to corresponding gellan samples. The diffusion coefficients for agar and gellan gels were 0.83 × 10?7 ? 2.38 × 10?7 m2s?1. The gellan gels were much harder than their corresponding agar gels. The addition of WPC, FeSO4, and FSP increased the textural indices like fracture force, fracture strain, fracture energy, and total energy for 50% compression for all the gels. Gellan and agar gels showed volume shrinkage; the lowest shrinkages were with WPC added gels followed by the FSP and FeSO4 incorporated samples. Dehumidifier-assisted dried food gels can serve as a delivery system for nutrients. 相似文献

Experimental results of surface temperature and moisture content of twigs of mate were obtained in a conveyor-belt dryer operated batchwise. The first response was determined with an infrared sensor, while the second was by conventional gravimetry. A set of 0.04-m-long cylindrical twigs classified manually into three different subgroups on the basis of their diameters (3.5 × 10?3, 6.5 × 10?3, and 10 × 10?3 m) were used in the experiments. Drying always took place in a chamber fed with a thin single layer of material 0.5 m in length and 0.05 m wide. The fresh twigs without leaves at ambient temperature (≈27.2 ± 2.6°C) and with an initial moisture content close to 0.8 ± 0.1 were dried at three different average air temperatures (65.5, 80.2, and 83.8°C) for 7200 s. A full set of nine (31 × 31) drying experiments were performed by varying the examined factors (particle diameter and drying temperature) at three levels. The low estimated Biot numbers (<0.55) indicate that convection plays a much more important role than conduction in heat transfer. Because of this and since heating was much faster than drying, the Newton’s law of cooling alone was successfully applied to describe the increase of particle temperature with time. From a similar analysis involving a convective mass transfer coefficient calculated with the Chilton-Colburn analogy emerged high-mass-transfer Biot numbers (≈5.37 × 103 ? 3.65 × 105) that reveal drying of twigs is governed by diffusion. In fact, the equation that represents the Fick’s second law of diffusion in a long cylinder (one-dimensional transfer), solved analytically and coupled to the model of heat transfer, was able to describe the kinetics of drying of mate twigs. 相似文献

The drying kinetics of olive cake, the solid by-product of the olive oil extraction process, has been experimentally investigated in a small-scale tray dryer using both constant and intermittent (on/off) heating schemes. The parameters investigated include inlet air temperature and intermittency of heat input. The drying kinetics was interpreted through two mathematical models, the Page equation and the Lewis equation. The Page equation was most appropriate in describing the drying behavior of olive cake. A diffusion model was used to describe the moisture transfer and the effective diffusion coefficient at each temperature was determined. The dependence of the effective diffusion coefficient on drying temperature can be adequately explained based on an Arrhenius-type relation. The effective diffusion coefficient varied between 7.6 × 10?8 and 2.5 × 10?7 m2/min with an activation energy of 38.55 kJ/mol. Comparison of time evolution of material moisture content due to intermittent and constant drying is also made. 相似文献

The influence of structural arrangements of Agave discs cut transversally (ADCT) and longitudinally (ADCL) on moisture loss, shrinkage, and shape was evaluated during convective drying by physical and image parameters. ADCT showed lower drying and shrinkage rates than ADCL. The fractal exponent (d) relating volume and thickness of samples rose from 1.552 ± 0.126 to 2.394 ± 0.128 and from 1.662 ± 0.111 to 1.848 ± 0.070 for ADCT and ADCL, respectively, which indicates that shrinkage was nonisotropic for both cases. Parameters considered for evaluating the changes of size and shape of Agave discs at macro- and microscopic levels during drying were projected area (PA), major length (ML), shape factor (SF), and fractal dimension of contour (FDC). The values obtained for these parameters demonstrated that changes in shrinkage and shape of both samples were dependent on structural arrangements of the samples. During the drying of ADCT samples, which have short and rigid structures, pronounced creasing was observed compared to ADCL materials, which are mainly formed by long and rigid structures. Also, it was observed that orientation of fibers influenced shrinkage and deformation. 相似文献
