Determination of drying kinetics, specific energy consumption, shrinkage, and colour properties of pomegranate arils submitted to microwave and convective drying

In this study, the drying kinetics, effective moisture diffusivity (D eff), specific energy consumption (SEC), colour, and shrinkage (S b) of pomegranate arils were compared when dried by convective (CV) drying and microwave (MW) drying. The experiments were performed a...
