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...

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 and experimental mean moisture content and temperature variations in the sample provides a satisfactory agreement for the moisture range from approximately 5.0 to 0.4 kg water/ kg dry solid. For this moisture range it can be assumed that the diffusion coefficient is not a function of moisture content. © 1995. Fil:Rovedo, C.O. Universidad de Buenos Aires.
