Cross-flow thin bed drying characteristics of maize (Zea mays) using continuous sample weight measurement

Maize (Zea mays L.) is one of the most important nutritious grains which have high moisture content during harvest. Moisture content of 24-25% (db) at the harvest has to be reduced below 14% (db) to prevent its deterioration during storage. Drying process is generally performed by forced convection...
