Abstract

The present investigation is contemplated to fill a gap in analytical modelling of coupled heat and mass transfer during convective drying process. A transport model to describe the temperature and moisture evolutions of mango slab is established. The main innovation introduced in this study is represented with the procedure of temperature and moisture predictions. Mango fruit dehydration can be easily simulated with implementation of the present advanced analytical technique at different operating conditions. Moreover, the temperature and moisture history of mango slice are presented for varying values of the drying air factors counting temperature, velocity, relative humidity and initial food temperature. This work confirms that notable time can be saved without sacrificing accuracy by applying proposed model. This method is expected to be useful for fast and accurate drying simulation. The agreement between published experimental results and model predictions is remarkable and an accurate simulation of experimental drying curves is obtained.
