Effect of Air Velocity and Temperature on Energy and Effective Moisture Diffusivity for Russian Olive (Elaeagnusan gastifolial L.) in Thin-Layer Drying

Effect of Air Velocity and Temperature on Energy and Effective Moisture Diffusivity for Russian Olive (Elaeagnusan gastifolial L.) in Thin-Layer Drying

Thin layer drying of Russian olive (Elaeagnusan gastifolial L.) fruit using a hot air dryer in order to calculate effective moisture diffusivity, activation energy and energy consumption has been evaluated in this article. The selected variables included three levels of air velocity of 0.5, 1 and 1....
