Drying of foods: Evaluation of a drying model

The drying of potato slabs in air flow is analysed by the simultaneous numerical solution of the differential heat balance and diffusion equations for a shrinking body. A uniform temperature profile in the solid and temperature dependent diffusion coefficient is assumed. Comparison between predicted...
