The ideal shrinkage model assumes that the extent of shrinkage is equal to the volume of liquid water removed from the dried medium. Generally if a material undergoes glass transition during the drying process, shrinkage will no longer be ideal. The aim of this study was to observe how the glass transition temperature influences the shrinkage kinetics. Cylindrical banana samples were dried. Shrinkage extent was significant for all drying conditions (temperature: 30–50°C, relative humidity: 0–80%). Deviation from linearity was found to be affected not only by drying air temperature but also by its relative humidity.  相似文献

A batch-type experimental dryer with a computer-aided data acquisition system was designed and built for the thin layer drying studies of onion (Allium cew L., cv. Southport White Globe) slices. Twenty seven single-layer drying curves were established for a temperature range of 42.5-900C, an air velocity range of 0.6-1.4 m/s, an air humidity range of 0.0093-0.0442 kg of water/kg of dry air: and a slice thickness range of 0.002-0.005 m. The single-term exponential model adequately described the single-layer drying behaviour of the onion slices. l'he dependence of the drying rate constant on air temperature, absolute humidity, velocity and on slice thickness was best explained by an Arrhenius-type relationship. The drying rate constant in which moisture diffusion and shrinkage effects are lumped was greatly influenced by the sample thickness and drying air temperature, and to a lesser extent, by the air humidity and velocity.  相似文献

During drying, timber distortion is a major defect mainly due to shrinkage anisotropy, differences in longitudinal shrinkage, and spiral grain. The distortion can be reduced by external restraint and use of appropriate kiln schedules. The research presented here is part of a project on the improvement of shape stability of Norway spruce by high-temperature drying. The effects of drying temperatures between 80 and 170°C and restraint on the extent of twist in Norway spruce were investigated on 30 cm lengths. Results show that significant twist reduction could be achieved in restrained specimens sawn from core wood. This effect was permanent even after exposure to subsequent moisture cycling. In addition to high-temperature drying, heat-treated material (Thermowood®) was also investigated. As for the high-temperature dried material, twist amplitude in moisture cycling was highest for pith-in specimens. Increased heat-treatment temperature reduced the twist amplitude, thus improving the shape stability. However, for the material dried in this study, shape stability was not influenced by the drying temperature.  相似文献

An innovative two-stage drying concept is presented in this article. The work considered drying of shrimp using a superheated steam dryer followed by a heat pump (SSD/HPD) or a hot air dryer (SSD/AD) both from drying kinetics and dried product quality points of view. The experiments were performed using the first-stage superheated steam drying temperature of 140°C while the second-stage heat pump drying (or hot air drying) was performed at 50°C. The moisture content of shrimp at the end of the superheated steam drying stage was varied between 30 and 40% (w.b.). The effect of tempering between SSD/HPD was also investigated. Shrinkage, color, rehydration behavior, texture (toughness and hardness), and microstructure of dried shrimp were measured. The results showed that SSD/HPD dried shrimp had much lower degree of shrinkage, higher degree of rehydration, better color, less tough and softer, and more porous than single-stage SSD dried shrimp. It was also found that SSD/AD gave redder shrimp compared to shrimp dried in a single-stage superheated steam dryer. No improvement in terms of shrinkage and rehydration behavior was observed, however.  相似文献

Drying Shrinkage Mechanisms in Portland Cement Paste   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
The shrinkage mechanisms of portland cement paste were investigated from shrinkage, weight loss, and pore structure measurements using nitrogen sorption and mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP). Thin samples (2.3 mm) of well-hydrated (165 d) pastes of 0.4 and 0.6 water-to-cement (W/C) ratios were dried directly from saturated surface dry state to 75%, 50%, 11%, and 0% relative humidity (rh). From equilibrium shrinkage vs calculated increase in surface free energy curves two active stress mechanisms were identified. The Gibbs-Bangham (surface free energy) effect is the major stress mechanism, which is active in the entire rh range investigated, whereas the capillary stress effect is active above 25% rh. From elastic modulus calculations it can be concluded that true Gibbs-Bangham shrinkage accounts for only 33% of total first drying shrinkage. Thus nearly 67% of first drying shrinkage may be due to a decrease in interlayer spacing caused by Gibbs-Bangham and capillary induced stresses. Further, nitrogen measures the true external surface area, and total external pore volume can be obtained from combined measurements using nitrogen sorption and MIP.  相似文献

The dynamic free shrinkage behavior of Western hemlock (Tsuga heterophylla) was investigated in order to provide the theoretical basis for the determination of drying mechanosoptive creep mechanism. Small specimens taken from five distinct positions within a log were dried at three constant temperatures (40, 60, and 80°C) and stepwise decreasing relative humidity conditions and their free shrinkage strain S in the tangential and radial directions was determined. The anisotropic shrinkage ratios G were also calculated and analyzed as functions of moisture content and temperature. The influential mechanism of the drying temperature, moisture range, and specimen position on the free shrinkage behavior was revealed. Two different function types were chosen to simulate the relationship between the free shrinkage strain and its variables (temperature, moisture, wood positions) for the specified moisture ranges.  相似文献

Tortilla pieces were prepared from nixtamalized masa flour, and dried under impinging hot air. The effect of different drying conditions on the drying rate, texture, shrinkage profile and microstructure was analyzed. The results indicated that drying rate was mostly affected by the air temperature; texture was crispier at higher air temperatures: shrinkage of the piece was higher at lower convective heat transfer coeffieient; and microstructure looked smoother at higher air temperature.  相似文献

In this study, specimens of heartwood from Chinese fir (Cunninghamia lanceolata [Lamb.] Hook.) plantation trees were dried by high-temperature drying (HTD), low-temperature drying (LTD), and freeze vacuum drying (FVD), respectively. The dynamic viscoelastic properties of dried and untreated wood specimens with various moisture contents were investigated in the temperature range between ? 120 and 40°C at 1 Hz using a dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA). The results indicated that the relative storage modulus and relative loss modulus were both the highest for HTD wood and the lowest for FVD wood, and that two mechanical relaxation processes developed. The α relaxation process in the higher temperature range was presumably a result of surpassing the glass transition of hemicelluloses with low molecular weight, whereas the β relaxation process occurring in the lower temperature range was most probably due to the motions of both methyl groups in the amorphous region of wood cell wall and adsorbed water molecules in wood. As moisture content increased, the decrease of relative storage modulus with increasing temperature became more dramatic, and the loss peak temperatures of the relaxation processes shifted to lower temperature range. The difference of dynamic mechanical behavior among untreated and dried specimens reduced with the increase of moisture content.  相似文献

Drying of water treatment process sludge in a fluidized bed dryer   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
The drying characteristics of water treatment process (WTP) sludge were investigated with a fluidized bed. The equilibrium moisture ratio of WTP sludge increased with relative humidity and decreased with temperature of drying air. However, equilibrium moisture ratio of WTP sludge was more sensitively dependent on relative humidity than temperature of drying air. When the sludge was dried in a batch fluidized bed, the drying rate of sludge decreased as the moisture ratio of sludge in the bed decreased. The periods of constant drying rates were apparently not observed on the drying rate curves. In addition, the maximum drying rates were increased with bed temperature and superficial air velocity. As the fluidized bed was operated continuously, the degree of drying of WTP sludge increased with bed temperature but was weakly dependent on superficial air velocity. However, the drying efficiency was decreased with bed temperature and relatively insensitive to superficial air velocity and increased with feed rate of sludge.  相似文献

Freeze drying (FD) yields the best quality of dried mushroom but at the cost of a long drying time and high overall cost. Air drying (AD) gives an unacceptably poor quality product. To achieve faster drying along with a high-quality product, a microwave–freeze drying (MFD) technique was developed to dry mushrooms. The relationship between dried mushroom quality and the glass transition temperature during the MFD process was studied to optimize the MFD process. According to the change tendency of the glass transition temperature of mushroom during MFD, a step-down microwave loading scheme for the MFD process was developed to obtain good product quality.  相似文献

A constitutive model is derived from theory of elasticity for predicting ultimate drying shrinkage of concrete. The model was extended by incorporating the semiempirical composite model proposed by Hirsch and Dougill for predicting Young's modulus of concrete. Their composite model is the geometric mean of Paul's upper and lower limit boundaries of a two-phase composite. According to the shrinkage model the parameters needed for predicting ultimate drying shrinkage of concrete at any relative humidity of drying are the following: ultimate shrinkage of a paste of same water-to-cement (W/C; ratio and degree of hydration as the concrete, relative volume of aggregates and unhydrated cement, and the elastic properties of hydrated paste and the particles. The shrinkage model was tested on shrinkage results obtained in this study and by Pickett. Three different W/C ratios were covered together with a wide range in aggregate contents. Excellent agreement with the results was found.  相似文献

Chestnuts were dehydrated by using a combined method of osmotic dehydration followed by air drying. Samples were osmotically pretreated with sucrose (60% w/w) and glucose (56% w/w) for 8 h, air-dried at temperatures of 45, 55, and 65°C, at a relative humidity of 30% and at a velocity of 2.7 m·s-1 and the experimental data of the drying kinetics were obtained. Whole samples were dried with different peelings: (a) removal of endocarp and pericarp (peeled) and (b) additionally the internal rough surface (cut). In all cases, cut chestnuts show greater drying rates than peeled samples, indicating that a significant mass transfer resistance in the layer nearest to the surface takes place. Peeled samples pretreated with sucrose solutions behave in a similar way to untreated samples. For the rest of the samples, the cut samples osmotically treated with sucrose solutions and all the samples treated with the glucose solution, the drying rates decrease during drying. Drying kinetics are successfully modeled by employing a diffusional model that takes the shrinkage into account. The effective coefficient of water diffusion was evaluated and correlated with temperature. The quality of the final product was monitored by color change. In spite of the fact that the total color difference is not modified by the osmotic treatment, the L*, a*, and b* color coordinates of cut samples treated with sucrose and glucose solutions do undergo changes; the L* and a* coordinates change less than the b*.  相似文献

The modulus, density, glass transition temperature (Tg), and water absorption characteristics of an amine-cured resin [diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (Epon 828)/diaminodiphenyl sulfone (DDS)] were studied as a function of extent of cure. The glass transition is a function of the extent of cure and reaches a maximum temperature, T, when it is completely cured; specimens with different extents of cure were formed by isothermal cure below T, for different times. After slowly cooling, the density at each extent of cure was obtained at room temperature. Moisture absorption was monitored gravimetrically at 25°C for 2 months at several humidity levels. The room temperature density and modulus decreased with increasing extent of conversion whereas the glass transition temperature and equilibrium water absorption increased. The equilibrium water absorption increased linearly with relative humidity, and the absorptivity increased linearly with specific volume. An interpretation of these anomalous results is made in terms of the nonequilibrium nature of the glassy state. The glass transition temperature increases as the extent of cure increases resulting in a material that is further from equilibrium at room temperature and therefore has more free volume and a greater propensity to absorb water.  相似文献

Although a detailed mathematical model incorporating all physical mechanisms of moisture and heat transfer in the material would yield valuable design information, it is not feasible to do this on a routine basis for the design of dryers. A simple liquid diffusion model was developed in the present study to quantitatively assess the influence of various operating parameters of engineering interest in drying of heat-sensitive materials. Heat of wetting, temperature, and moisture dependent effective diffusivity and thermal conductivity, changes in product density and drying-induced ideal shrinkage of the product are considered in this model. The effects of combining convection with conduction, radiation, and volumetric heating using a microwave field are simulated in view of the increasing interest in multimode heat input drying processes. Numerical results are reported on drying of potato slices to demonstrate how the moisture and temperature profiles as well as drying performance are affected by multi-mode heat input. Effects of key parameters e.g., drying air velocity, temperature, relative humidity, and product thickness are computed and discussed.  相似文献
