Abstract

Thin-layer drying characteristics of rough rice were determined at temperature ranging from 11.8 to 51 °C and for relative humidities ranging from 37.1% to 91.3%, with initial moisture contents in the range of 24.7 to 41.6% dry basis. An oven, a self contain air conditioning unit, recently developed in Japan, was used for this experiments. With this apparatus, very smooth drying curves were obtained. The data of sample weight, and dry and wet bulb temperatures of the drying air were recorded continuously throughout the drying period for each test. The drying process was terminated when the moisture content change in 24 h was less than 0.2 % d.b. (weight change was less than 0.05 g). The final points were recorded as the dynamic equilibrium moisture contents.

The drying data were than fitted to the Page model. The model gave a very good fit for the moisture content with an average standard error of 0.294 % d.b? Both the drying parameters, K and N, are function of drying air temperature and relative humidity. The effect of variable initial moisture content was also described effectively by the empirical Page model. The drying time employed had a large effect on the K and N values. The results presented here, over typically 5 day drying, will be useful in the long term moisture transfer process occurring during ventilated storage.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

Rough rice at about 21% (wet basis) was dried at various conditions of temperatures and evaporating capacities of air. The influence of both parameters on drying rate has been studied. At high temperatures, high drying rates can be achieved with low evaporating capacities. In addition, desorption isotherms of rough rice were measured at 35, 60 and 85°C and the experimental isotherms data were fitted using a modified Pfost equation.

A compartmental model was developed to simulate the grain moisture content. Heat and mass transfer coefficients were optimized using a Nelder & Mead method. Internal mass transfer coefficient was written as an exponential function of the average moisture content and temperature of the grain and the external mass transfer coefficient as a function of air temperature. The compartmental approach predicts very well the average moisture content with a mean error of about 5% in static and dynamic conditions.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

The optimisation of grain drying systems was studied through the dynamic programming technique focusing on the minimisation of the energy consumption, lakingin account the conservation of the product quality and avoiding excessive humidity gradients in the bed at the end stages of drying. An algorithm was developed, where the input data were the initial conditions of the product and the climate data of the region. The operational conditions considered were: fan on or off, and different degrees of air heating (1 to 5 °C). The result obtained was an optimised management strategy for the operation of the dryer, specified for each stage of the process, in two situations: calculated from the mean climate dam of ten years, and corrected day by day with up to date climate data.  相似文献

Abstract

This work obtains thin-layer drying data for rough rice from 108 treatments. A thin-layer drying equation is also derived using these data with drying air absolute humidity, drying air temperature, tempering time interval and drying time interval as the independent variables. In addition, an intermittent drying equation is developed to predict the drying behavior of rough rice in a re-circulating type rice dryer.  相似文献

FINITE ELEMENT SIMULATION OF ROUGH RICE DRYING   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Milled, brown and rough rice samples were dried in the laboratory with heated air and diffusivities of the endosperm, bran and husk were evaluated with a search technique using the finite element method. The endosperm had the highest diffusivity. The husk had a slightly higher diffusivity than the bran because the trapped air inside the husk was considered as an integral part of the husk. The finite element method predicted rough rice drying that was in good agreement with experimental results.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

The paper presents new data for thin-layer drying characteristics of Thai long grain rough rice measured under various conditions of drying air temperature (35 to 60?°C), drying air relative humidity (30 to 70 % ) and the initial moisture content of rough rice (20 to 40 % dry basis). Empirical equations were developed using the instantaneous weight, the weight loss and drying time, with temperature, relative humidity and initial moisture content of rough rice as the independent variables. A computer program was developed to simulate the deep-bed drying process. The thin-layer drying equation developed before was used in the computer simulation. Experimental data from the fixed bed dryer were compared with the results from the calculation.  相似文献

The effect of microwave drying on moisture content, moisture ratio, drying rate, drying time, and effective moisture diffusivity of celery leaves (Apium graveolens) was investigated. By increasing the microwave output power from 180 to 900 W the drying time decreased from 34 to 8 min; by increasing the sample amount from 25 to 100 g, the drying time increased from 25 to 49 min. 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 the models proposed, the semi-empirical Midilli et al. model gave a better fit for all drying conditions applied. The activation energy was calculated using an exponential expression based on the 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

This study applied a partial differential equation model with newly-developed thin layer equations to simulate batch re-circulating dryers under different drying conditions, which are combinations of four parameters: drying air temperature, drying air absolute humidity, drying period duration, and tempering period duration. The moisture change and the drying rate, which were of particular concern with respect to the simulated data, were investigated. Validation drying tests were carried out in a lab scale re-circulating rice dryer. Two sets of experiment were performed involving different drying parameters to simulate re-circulating rice dryers which are extensively used in Asian countries. Comparing these two experimental data with two simulated drying curves respectively, it revealed they are quite consist with each other under the same drying conditions. Drying air temperature, drying air humidity, drying period duration and tempering period duration significantly influenced the drying rate. Under the same drying condition, the tempering period duration effect was insignificant to the drying rate in drying zone as the drying air humidity or temperature increased. And, a higher initial moisture content obtained higher time and energy efficiency for the re-circulating rice dryers.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

The solution of classical diffusion equation based on the assumption of average moisture diffusion coefficient did not adequately represent natural convection drying of rough rice in thin vertical columns exposed on both sides to hot air. Instantaneous moisture diffusivity coefficients determined from experimental drying curves decreased continuously with an increase in exposure duration and were linearly related to moisture ratio. The proponionality constant which was called apparent moisture diffusion coefficient was distinctly related to air temperature, relative humidity, and initial moisture content of rough rice. The modified moisture diffusion model using the instantaneous moisture diffusion coefficient was found to best represent the moisture removal from bulk rough rice.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

Thin-layer drying experiments under overflow–underflow and through flow conditions of green chilli were conducted with air temperature ranging from 40 to 65°C, relative humidity ranging from 10 to 60% and air velocity ranging from 0.10 to 1.0 m/s. The single exponential equation and the Page equation were used to determine the thin-layer drying characteristics for green chilli. Both the equations fitted well to the experimental data. The Page equation was found to describe the thin-layer drying of chilli better than the single exponential equation. The parameters of the Page equation and the single exponential equation were expressed as a function of drying air temperature, relative humidity and air velocity.  相似文献

Abstract

The purpose of this research was to study the optimum strategy of the interrupted drying technique for rough rice. The effects of interrupted drying on drying rates, cracking enhancement ratios, and the performance of a commercial circulating rice dryer were evaluated. The results indicated that the required interrupted period of grains with moisture of ranging from 18 to 20% was 2 around 3 hours. The interrupted drying technique can significantly increase the drying rate. The dryer performance e.g. fuel-consumption rate, drying rate, and drying time were all affected by interrupting the drying process, as expected.  相似文献

Equilibrium Moisture Content (EMC) data for medium rough rice grain, Lido variety were obtained by equilibrating rice samples at different Equilibrium Relative Humidities (ERH) and Temperatures. The employed models to fit the data were GAB, modified Chung-Pfost, modified Halsey, Modified Henderson, and modified Oswin. The data were evaluated using the standard error of moisture content, mean relative standard error (%P) of the model and the correlation coefficient r2. The GAB model by indirect regression described the EMC the best, however its parameters lacked of physical meaning. The modified Chung-Pfost and modified Henderson equations presented a similar fit of the EMCERH relationships. The modified Chung-Pfost equation had lower residual values than the modified Henderson equation and was considered the best model to explain the EMC-ERH relationships.  相似文献
