Heat and Moisture Transfer in a Dense Dispersed Layer of Vegetable Materials with Radiative-Convective Energy Supply

  • Published:
Journal of Engineering Physics and Thermophysics Aims and scope

The results of an experimental study and numerical simulation of heat and moisture transfer in a blown dense and a stirred layer of vegetable materials under convective and cyclic radiative-convective heat supply are considered. Based on the analysis of the kinetic dependences of the dehydration of vegetable materials, the possibility of reducing the duration of the process is shown. A comparison of the calculated and experimental data on the kinetics of the process is made, indicating their satisfactory agreement and the adequacy of the model.
