DRYING CHARACTERISTICS AND QUALITY ANALYSIS OF HOT AIR-ASSISTED RADIO FREQUENCY AND HOT-AIR DRYING OF JUJUBE ( Zizyphus jujube Miller cv. Jinsixiaozao )

open access: yesEngenharia Agrícola, 2022
Radio frequency (RF) drying is a rapid dehydration technique that reduces water activity and extends the shelf life of agricultural products. In this study, the drying characteristics of jujube during HARF and hot air (HA) were investigated, and quality ...

Browning mechanism and process optimization during MaizeMaize KX7349 Drying

open access: yesJulius-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.

Cross-flow thin bed drying characteristics of maize (Zea mays) using continuous sample weight measurement

open access: yesThe Indian Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2019
Maize (Zea mays L.) is one of the most important nutritious grains which have high moisture content during harvest. Moisture content of 24-25% (db) at the harvest has to be reduced below 14% (db) to prevent its deterioration during storage.

Validation of a coupled heat, vapour and liquid moisture transport model for porous materials implemented in CFD [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Moisture-related damage is an important issue when looking at the performance of building envelopes. In order to accurately predict the moisture behaviour of building components, building designers can resort to Heat, Air and Moisture (HAM) models.

Humidity-insensitive water evaporation from molecular complex fluids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We investigated theoretically water evaporation from concentrated supramolecular mixtures, such as solutions of polymers or amphiphilic molecules, using numerical resolutions of a one dimensional model based on mass transport equations.
