Diffusion and the drying of wood
Wood Science and Technology, 1995Fick's laws, stating that diffusion rate is proportional to the concentration gradient, have traditionally been used to describe the drying of wood. The author contends that they have been used inappropriately, since according to Fick's laws the rate varies as the concentration gradient of diffusing molecules, whereas many wood scientists use the ...

Wood preparation, storage, and drying
Biomass and Bioenergy, 1992Abstract The research cooperation in this activity has shown a fundamentally different attitude between the participating scientists in the scientific line of procedure considered. One group proceeds pragmatically. The group has the opinion that drying progress in big chip stacks is determined by so many intercorrelated factors that it is ...

THE DRYING OF SMALL WOOD PARTICLES
Drying Technology, 1983ABSTRACT Small particles of Douglas fir of characteristic size 0.2 to 1cm have been dried by flowing the wood particles in vitiated air in a long vertical tube. Drying rate, dM/dt, was determined by measuring the increasing humidity of the transporting gas flow, and by measuring the absolute velocity of the particles by a radioactive isotope tagging ...

DRYING WOOD: A REVIEW - PART II
Drying Technology, 1983ABSTRACT This paper reviews the technology of wood drying and recent developments in the field. The importance of drying is reviewed first. Then the fundamentals of wood properties as they relate to drying are discussed, including how water is held in wood, how it moves through wood, and how drying stresses that lead to drying defects develop ...

Parameters Identification for Wood Drying
2004The importance of the process of drying solids in industry is widely recognized for some time now. The energy consumption in drying and its proportion in total energy balance has been often emphasized by various reports. The proper management of our energy resources requires an improvement of the existing drying techniques and innovation of new ...
