Abstract
This paper shows the variation of the driving forces of external and internal mass transfer in relation to the temperature of the heat-transfer media (superheated steam and air). It is indicated that the use of superheated steam at atmospheric pressure accelerates transport processes and leads to more efficient and more economic drying.
