Fish fillets present large variation in volume during drying, due to their high initial moisture content. A kinetical study on the drying of fish muscles in slabs shaped with constant air conditions at three temperature levels is presented. For the modeling of the drying process of these materials, a diffusive model can be used, assuming a one-dimensional volume change. A linear correlation was considered between the thickness of the material and its moisture content, where the linear shrinkage coefficient has been determined. The resulting dimensionless nonlinear partial differential equation was solved numerically by the finite differences technique. 相似文献

This article presents mathematical models to simulate coupled heat and mass transfer during convective drying of food materials using three different effective diffusivities: shrinkage dependent, temperature dependent, and the average of those two. Engineering simulation software COMSOL Multiphysics was utilized to simulate the model in 2D and 3D. The simulation results were compared with experimental data. It is found that the temperature-dependent effective diffusivity model predicts the moisture content more accurately at the initial stage of the drying, whereas the shrinkage-dependent effective diffusivity model is better for the final stage of the drying. The model with shrinkage-dependent effective diffusivity shows evaporative cooling phenomena at the initial stage of drying. This phenomenon was investigated and explained. Three-dimensional temperature and moisture profiles show that even when the surface is dry, the inside of the sample may still contain a large amount of moisture. Therefore, the drying process should be dealt with carefully; otherwise, microbial spoilage may start from the center of the dried food. A parametric investigation was conducted after validation of the model. 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 aim of this study is to evaluate experimentally the effective diffusion coefficient and the drying kinetics of whole unpeeled figs (Ficus carica L. var. tsapela) in terms of drying conditions. Estimation of the effective diffusion coefficient was carried out employing Fick's law for unsteady diffusion, which was solved analytically and numerically. In both methods, shrinkage effect was considered. The results from the two methods were compared and presented together with the limited results from the literature. The estimated effective diffusion coefficient values by both methods were fitted to a modified Arrhenius equation. Finally, a model predicting drying kinetics was developed. The model's coefficients were associated to the experimental conditions. 相似文献

The effect of microwave drying technique on moisture content, moisture ratio, drying rate, drying time, effective moisture diffusivity, and porosity of spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) were investigated. By increasing the microwave output powers (180-900 W) and the sample amounts (25-100 g), the drying time decreased from 18 to 3.5 min and increased from 7.7 to 25 min, respectively. To determine the kinetic parameters, the drying data were fitted to various models based on the ratios of the differences between the initial and final moisture contents and equilibrium moisture content versus drying time. Among of the models proposed, Page's model gave a better fit for all drying conditions applied. The activation energy was calculated using an exponential expression based on Arrhenius equation. The relationship between the drying rate constant and effective moisture diffusivity was also estimated and gave a linear relationship. 相似文献

Thin Layer Drying Models for Osmotically Pre-dried Young Coconut 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Thin layer convection drying was performed on osmotically pre-dried young coconut, strips, both thin and thick. A drying air temperature range of 50-70°C and an airflow of 0.25 m s-1 was used to dry samples soaked in three sugar solution concentrations (40, 50, and 60°B) during the osmotic drying phase, with the convection drying alone serving as control. An analysis of variance (ANOVA) revealed that sugar concentration and thickness significantly affected osmotic drying rates as shown by their final moisture contents. While the drying air temperature and slab thickness significantly affected the average drying rate and the sugar concentration was an insignificant factor during convective drying phase. Effective diffusivity of water during hot air drying varied from 1.71 to 5.51 × 10-10 m2s-1 over the temperature range investigated, with energy of activation equal to 1173.0 kJ/kg. Three mathematical models available in the literature were fitted to the experimental data, with the Page model giving better predictions than the single or double term exponential model. The temperature dependence of the diffusivity coefficients was satisfactorily described by a simple Arrhenius type relationship. 相似文献

Microwave drying of whole fruit Chinese jujube was performed at 45, 90, and 135 W. Ten commonly used mathematical models of thin-layer drying were compared. The Midilli model was best in describing drying time dependency of product moisture ratios. The initial drying rate and drying rate constant are linearly proportional to microwave power level. An effective diffusivity model was presented and validated with the Renka-Cline algorithm. The model has very high predictive precision, suggested by the relative percentage error of 3.734% on average between the model and the Renka-Cline algorithm. The effective diffusivity was proved to be a linear function of microwave power level and a quadratic function of moisture content. Energy consumption in microwave drying of Chinese jujube decreased as microwave power increased from 45 to 135 W, but 90 W was adequate for high-quality products with less energy consumption. 相似文献

The effects of osmotic dehydration (OD) with or without pulsed vacuum (PV) on hot-air drying kinetics and quality attributes of cherry tomatoes were investigated. Both OD and PVOD pre-treatments were performed for 3 h at 50°C in 50 and 70o Brix sucrose solutions with a solution-to-fruit mass ratio of 4:1, and PVOD was applied for 15 min before OD at atmospheric pressure. Samples were further dried at air temperature of 70°C. Effective moisture diffusivity (D eff) of osmotically dehydrated samples increased gradually while the Deff curve of fresh samples had a plateau stage during hot air drying. Lower glass transition temperature, Tg, values of osmotically dehydrated samples indicated that they needed a lower storage temperature. Both OD and PVOD pre-treatments had advantages in shortening drying cycles and improving quality of products. Compared with air drying, osmo-air drying decreased the total drying time, color change, and hardness of dried samples by 32.26%, 18.11%, and 88.21%, respectively, and increased volume ratio and vitamin C retention rate by 72.31% and 125.82%. As compared with OD, PVOD decreased color change and hardness by 28.48% and 45.17%, increased volume ratio and vitamin C retention rate by 27.41% and 17.77%, but there was no significant difference shown in drying time. Therefore, osmotic pre-treatment can shorten the total dehydration time, and improve the general quality of dried cherry tomatoes. 相似文献

The effect of temperature on blueberry drying rate, shrinkage, and color changes was evaluated from drying experiments for both high bush (Vaccinium corymbosum L.) and wild (Vaccinium angustifolium) blueberries. Drying temperature significantly affected texture and color of both varieties. Temperatures above 55°C caused a significant color change (ΔE > 25) within 30 min of the beginning of drying, followed by a significant drop in density from 1.02 to 0.38 g/cm3. In contrast, drying at temperatures below 50°C resulted in nonsignificant color changes and an eventual density increase to 1.26 g/cm3. It follows that blueberry color could be used as an early stage indicator of quality degradation in the process of drying. 相似文献

From experimental data, Spirulina effective moisture diffusivity was analytically estimated by considering two diffusion regions and the product shrinkage. Then, the moisture diffusivity was deduced from the numerical solutions of mass transfer equations by minimizing the difference between experimental and simulated drying curves and by taking into account the slab thickness variation. The range of moisture diffusivity used for simulations was estimated from minimal and maximal values of experimental effective diffusivities and calculation started with the mean value of experimental effective diffusivities. Identified effective diffusivities ranged from 1.79 × 10?10 to 6.73 × 10?10 m2/s. These diffusivities increased strongly with drying temperature and decreased slightly with moisture content. A suitable model correlating effective diffusivity, temperature, and moisture content was then established. Effective diffusivities given by this model were very close to experimental ones with a relative difference ranging from 0.5 to 24%. 相似文献

Dried plant food materials are one of the major contributors to the global food industry. Widening the fundamental understanding of different mechanisms of food material alterations during drying assists the development of novel dried food products and processing techniques. In this regard, case hardening is an important phenomenon, commonly observed during the drying processes of plant food materials, which significantly influences the product quality and process performance. In this work, a mesh-free-based 2D numerical model developed by the authors is further improved and used to simulate the influence of case hardening on shrinkage characteristics of plant tissues during drying. In order to model the fluid mechanisms of plant cells, smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH), which is a popular mesh-free technique used to solve hydrodynamics problems, is used. The cell wall mechanisms are modeled using the discrete element method (DEM). The model is fundamentally more capable of simulating large deformations of multiphase materials compared to conventional grid-based modeling techniques such as finite element methods (FEM) or finite difference methods (FDM). Case hardening is implemented by maintaining distinct moisture levels in the different cell layers of a given tissue. In order to compare and investigate different factors influencing tissue deformation under case hardening, four different plant tissue varieties (apple, potato, carrot, and grape) are studied. The simulation results indicate that the inner cells of any given tissue undergo limited shrinkage and cell wall wrinkling, compared to the case-hardened outer cell layers of the tissues. For a given dried tissue condition, the case-hardened cellular deformations are highly influenced by the unique characteristics of the different tissues, such as cell size, cell fluid turgor pressure, and cell wall properties. 相似文献

Fluid Flow Effect and Mechanical Interactions during Drying of a Deformable Food Model 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The purpose of this work was to evaluate a mathematical representation for the drying of a spherical food model, including the fluid flow effect and mechanical interactions. Drying kinetics data were obtained under a laminar fluid flow and the mechanical properties were evaluated through compression tests. The drying model considers two-dimensional mass transfer and the mechanical model was formulated from elasticity theory. The solution made possible the understanding of the fluid flow effect on mass transfer and the relationship between drying stresses and physical degradation of the food models. 相似文献
