Evaluation of infrared drying for okra: Mathematical modelling, moisture diffusivity, energy activity and quality attributes
Okra (Hibiscus esculentus L.) was dried using an infrared drier at radiation intensities of 0.167, 0.235, and 0.520 W/cm2 and air velocities of 0.3, 0.5, and 0.7 m/s to determine its thin-layer drying characteristics and quality parameters. Okra dried during falling rates, and drying time was reduce...
