The Mathematical Modelling of Drying Process Based on Moisture Transfer Mechanism

  • Conference paper
Drying ’85

Abstract

A mathematical model of drying of hygroscopic-porous materials based on Krischer’s approach to moisture transfer in dried materials has been proposed. The model exposes the phenomenon of receding of the evaporation zone into the dried body, and takes into account the dried body shrinkage.

The presented model as well as Krischer’s and Berger and Pei’s models have been solved numerically and the solutions have been compared with experimental results.
