Drying timber in a solar kiln using an intermittent drying schedule of conventional laboratory kiln

open access: yesDrying Technology, 2018
AbstractThe purpose of this study was to apply an intermittent drying schedule developed from a conventional kiln to a solar kiln. Implementing this experiment could help better understand the oscillation of the temperature inside a solar kiln and timber quality during drying progress.

Impregnation and Drying Schedule of Eucalyptus Wood

open access: yesApplied Mechanics and Materials, 2011
The aim of this research was to define a rapid and simple test that would indicate the probable performance of a pretreated wood species in a hot-press drying process and the kiln schedule. The drying rate (mass/time) and the remaining mass of water were measured at different moisture intervals.

Assessing the Influence of the Drying Schedule on Moisture Variability in the Batch Drying of Timber

Drying Technology, 2004
Timber drying schedules influence the dispersion in moisture content between boards at the end of drying. Both a single set-point schedule and a double set-point schedule are selected to illustrate the concept. A simple deterministic drying model that can predict moisture content as a function of time for a single and double set-point schedule is ...

Optimization, a Tool with which to Create an Effective Drying Schedule

Holzforschung, 1998
A method for defining effective schedules for kiln drying of wood is presented. The method is designed in such a way that it proposes an optimized variation of temperature and humidity which yields ...

RFV Drying Schedule Development for Thick Western Red Cedar Timbers

open access: yesJournal of the Institute of Wood Science, 2008
Radio frequency vacuum drying of timbers could result in internal checking (honeycombing) due to elevated internal temperatures and pressures that is believed to be associated to the level of applied power density, but it might be also related to the way

Probabilistic Analysis of Timber Drying Schedules

Drying Technology, 2003
Abstract Timber drying schedules are primarily chosen to achieve a certain final moisture content accompanied by a minimum amount of board degrade. However the schedule adopted also influences the dispersion in moisture content between boards at the end of drying.
