Radio Frequency/vacuum Drying of B.c. Softwoods; Preliminary Experiments
Five exploratory drying runs were carried out in a commercial size (23 m3), radio frequency/vacuum hardwood kiln. The species investigated were Pacific coast hemlock, Douglas-fir and western red cedar of different sizes and grades. Evaluation of the dried lumber showed that the three species can be dried in very short times and low amount of degrade irrespective of thickness with the exception ...
متن کاملUltrasound-Assisted Vacuum Drying of Wood: Effects on Drying Time and Product Quality
Ultrasonic energy was applied to assist the wood vacuum drying process. At a drying temperature of 60°C, the absolute pressure was either 0.05 MPa or 0.08 MPa; the ultrasonic power and frequency were 100 W and 28 kHz, respectively. The results showed that the effective water diffusivity of the specimens dried by the ultrasonic assisted vacuum drying at 0.05 MPa or 0.08 MPa were higher than that...
متن کاملExperimental and modeling investigation of mass transfer during combined infrared‐vacuum drying of Hayward kiwifruits
In this work, we tried to evaluate mass transfer during a combined infrared-vacuum drying of kiwifruits. Infrared radiation power (200-300 W) and system pressure (5-15 kPa), as drying parameters, are evaluated on drying characteristics of kiwifruits. Both the infrared lamp power and vacuum pressure affected the drying time of kiwifruit slices. Nine different mathematical models were evaluated f...
متن کاملVacuum Drying Characteristics of Some Vegetables
In this research the drying of four kinds of vegetables was investigated in a vacuum dryer. The effect of temperature on drying rate of samples at various temperatures (30, 35 and 45 °C) was studied. Six thin-layer drying models were fitted to drying data and suitable model was selected from them. Then effective moisture diffusivity and ...
متن کاملEvaluation of Drying Methods With Respect to Drying Kinetics and Mineral Contents of Dill and Parsley
Dill (Anethum graveolens L.) and parsley (Petroselinum crispum Mill.) were dried by using sun and oven (50oC) drying methods. Oven drying decreased the drying time approximately 50% when compared to the sun drying method for both herbs. K, Ca, P, Mg and Na were the most abundant elements in dill and parsley samples. Oven-dried samples had higher mineral values than that of the su...
