Abstract Onion slices of 3 mm thick were dried in an atmospheric batch tray dryer in order to investigate the influence of air temperature and drying time on parameters such as sample moisture content and drying rate. A model is proposed which takes into account both moisture and temperature distributions in the sample and is in a fair agreement with the experimental data. The models suggested so far by other workers take only the moisture distributions into account for onion drying. 相似文献

ABSTRACT An analytical model is proposed to determine the moisture diffusivities in geometrical solid objects (namely, infinite slab, infinite cylinder, sphere) subjected to drying applications. The analysis for moisture diffusion is carried out on the basis of two imponant criteria: 0.l?Bi?100 and Bi>100. New correlations for the mots of the characteristic equations corresponding these objects are developed. For a drying application, using the similarity between cooling and drying profiles, drying coefficient and lag factor are obtained. The model is then verified using available data from literature.Results show that the presented model can be used to determine the moisture diffusion coefficients in such solid objects in a simple and accurate manner in a variety of drying applications. 相似文献

The drying of plant materials with cellular tissue is often viewed as drying of porous media that is assumed to consist of cell cytoskeleton and intercellular space. Various approaches have been reported in the literature to describe heat and mass transfer during drying of such porous materials. However, the fact remains that the water in a cellular tissue is mostly intracellular and it should be driven out of the cells across cell membranes before transporting in cell gaps, as in a general porous media. In the present study, the transport process of moisture in a cellular tissue was analyzed. A mathematical model for moisture transport across the cell membrane was established, which was correlated to a self-developed, dual-scale pore network model (cell and pore network) for drying of plant materials. The relationship between mass volumetric flux and average intracellular moisture content was developed based on the microscopic images and the drying experiments. 相似文献

Conventional and vacuum drying experiments were conducted on Betula pendula timber, which was sawn from trees felled during three different seasons. The influence of the wood procurement season on drying behavior differed, on the one hand, between the drying phases above and below 30% moisture content in the conventional drying, and, on the other hand, between the conventional and vacuum drying methods. During the first steps of the conventional drying process, relative humidity in the kiln, as well as drying time and drying rate, varied according to the felling season. Variations in environmental conditions outside the kiln and the seasonal variation in the physical properties of the wood were presumed to be the reasons for differences in drying behavior. The difference in moisture content gradient, i.e., the difference in final moisture content between the inner wood and the surface layer of boards, was greater in conventionally dried timber than in vacuum-dried timber. In conventionally dried timber there was a clear seasonal variation in the gradient of final moisture content, which was greatest for winter-felled wood. The premature drying of the surface layer during the first steps of the conventional drying process of winter-felled wood was the reason for the higher gradient of moisture content. Storage of wood as logs decreased the standard deviation of the final moisture content. 相似文献

Intermittent drying of paddy rice is fully investigated both theoretically and experimentally. A model is developed to describe simultaneous heat and mass transfer for the drying stages and mass transfer for the tempering ones. The model is considered for both cylindrical and spherical geometries. The model excels in considering non-constant paddy rice and air physical properties as well as surface vaporization and convection. The consequent equations are numerically solved with finite-difference method of line using implicit Runge–Kutta. Furthermore, a set of experiments is conducted in a laboratory-scale fluidized bed dryer to estimate the moisture diffusivity of rice and evaluate the effects of different parameters. Two correlations for moisture diffusivity are derived for each geometry based on the experimental results. It is noteworthy that the geometry choice leads to significantly different moisture diffusivities. As a result, the diffusivity values obtained for spherical presentation is 2.64 times greater than that of cylinder. Moreover, the cylindrical model fits the experimental results more precisely, especially for tempering stage (AARDcyl = 1.03%; AARDsph = 1.53%). Model results reveal that thermal equilibrium is quickly reached within the first 2 min. Air velocity shows no influential effect on drying upon establishment of fluidized condition. In addition, drying rate is drastically improved after applying the tempering stage. A definition for tempering stage efficiency is also proposed which shows that 3 h tempering will be 80% efficient for the studied case. Rising temperature significantly improves the drying rate, while it does not contribute much in the tempering efficiency. 相似文献
