ANN-based Approach to Model MC/DR of Some Fruits under Solar Drying [PDF]

Kemija u Industriji, 2021
The aim of this work was to model the moisture content (MC) and drying rate (DR) using artificial neural network (ANN) methodology. Many architectures have been tested and the best topology was selected based on a trial and error method.

Browning mechanism and process optimization during MaizeMaize KX7349 Drying

Julius-Kühn-Archiv, 2018
Browning of KX7349 maize during drying occurred mainly in the pericarp layer. Browning was caused by oxidation of water soluble matter in the pericarp layer. Moisture content had no significant influence on browning rate.

Drying law of natural gas pipeline with dry air method

You-qi chuyun, 2022
The study on drying rate of pipeline with dry air is the basis for establishing and solving the drying and purging model, as well as determining the optimal indexes of air drying. The existing drying rate model does not meet the actual working conditions.
