Thermodynamically analysis and optimization of potato drying in a combined infrared/convective dryer

The present work dealt with a detailed energy and exergy analysis for potatoes drying in a hybrid infrared/hot air dryer. Studying optimization factors of drying air temperature and velocity and infrared power, response surface methodology (RSM) was also used to model and optimize performance of the...
