The functional properties of multi-component particles are strongly affected by their chemical
surface composition, for instance in pharmaceutical and food applications. The powders are …

More extensive use of industrial polymeric products in industry and domestic markets
requires larger quantities of such products being dried. The ability to describe drying of …

Drying is a complex process which involves simultaneous heat and mass transfer.
Complicated structure and heterogeneity of food and biological materials add to the …

The mass exchange between solid particles and air during the drying of yeast in a fluidized
bed is first modeled following a standard approach, using an isotherm equation and …

In this paper, we develop a dynamic model of an industrial type medium size four-stage
spray dryer. The purpose of the model is to enable simulations of the spray dryer at different …

During drying of foods, the moisture diffusivity depends on several factors like the moisture
content, temperature and the degree of shrinkage of food materials. As an approximation …

Spray-drying is the prime process for manufacturing powders. Optimization of spray-drying
processes requires both modeling the drying characteristics of a single milk droplet and the …

Several schemes of energy minimization of drying process including intermittent drying have
been attempted. Intermittent drying is conducted by applying different heat inputs in each …

An assumption of uniform temperature is frequently used when evaluating average
temperature‐time and average moisture content‐time profiles for the convective drying of …

In this research, an experimental and modeling study on mass transfer analysis during
infrared drying of quince was undertaken. In the experimental part, the effects of various …
