Hot-pressing process modeling for medium density fiberboard (MDF) [PDF]
, 2001 In this paper we present a numerical solution for the mathematical modeling of the hot-pressing process applied to medium density fiberboard. The model is based in the work of Humphrey[82], Humphrey and Bolton[89] and Carvalho and Costa[98], with some ...

Moisture diffusion within shredded tobacco leaves.
Agricultural and Biological Chemistry, 1985 The mechanism of moisture transfer into shredded tobacco was investigated in connection with moistening process control in cigarette manufacturing. For shredded tobaccos of less than about 1.0 mm shred width, the moisture was sorbed mainly through the cut faces rather than through the leaf epidermis, indicating that the moisture diffusion within the ...

Effect of Fruit Thickness on Microwave Drying Characteristics of Myrtus communis L. [PDF]
Iranian Journal of Chemistry & Chemical Engineering, 2023 Myrtus communis L. (Myrtle) is an evergreen shrub and its fruit is used in traditional medicine in hypoglycemic, oral, and stomach disease therapy. To the best of our knowledge, there is no report on microwave drying of it. Therefore, this study is aimed
