Analysis and modeling of pitaya slices in a heat pump drying system

The objective of this article was to investigate the drying kinetics, effective moisture diffusivity, and quality of pitaya in the heat pump drying process. The experiment was conducted at a drying temperature of 50–70°C, slice thickness of 8–10 mm, and a relative humidity of 10–30%. The results sho...
