Temperature and relative humidity effect on equilibrium moisture content of cassava pulp

open access: yesResearch in Agricultural Engineering, 2019
The purpose of this research was to study the effect of temperature and relative humidity on the equilibrium moisture content of cassava pulp. In experiments, cassava pulp was tested with a static method that controlled the temperature at 30, 50 and 70°C

Thermal expansion of wood at different equilibrium moisture contents [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Wood Science, 2019
The measurement of wood thermal expansion at fixed values of moisture content (MC) between the dry state and the cell wall saturation point is a very difficult task, as MC varies with temperature. Being hygroscopic deformations much larger than thermal ones, in order to evaluate the latter, when changing temperature also relative humidity should be ...

Experimental determination of dynamic pseudo-equilibrium moisture content: A practical limit for the drying process [PDF]

open access: yesMethodsX, 2023
Simulation and rigorous design of industrial dryers combine a large number of models, which feed three fundamental balances: (1) mass; (2) energy; and (3) quantity of movement of the material through the dryer.

Equilibrium moisture content of radiata pine at elevated temperature and pressure reveals measurement challenges

open access: yesJournal of Materials Science, 2012
Relatively few studies have been performed on the equilibrium moisture content (EMC) of wood under conditions of elevated temperature and pressure. Eight studies indicated that EMC near saturation decreased between 100 and 150 °C, whilst five studies ...

Calibration of Acoustic Emission Parameters in Relation to the Equilibrium Moisture Content Variations in a Pinus sylvestris Beam

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
Under constant temperature conditions, air relative humidity variations affect hygroscopic objects, such as wood, modifying their moisture content and provoking, at low values, damages and fractures. The parameters (amplitude, counts, and energy) derived
