Universal drying rate constant of seedless grapes: A review

Singh, S.P.; Jairaj, K.S.; Srikant, K. - In: Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews 16 (2012) 8, pp. 6295-6302

Drying kinetics of materials may be described completely using their transport properties together with those of the drying medium. In the case of food drying, the drying rate constant ‘k’ was used instead of transport properties. The drying rate constant combines all the transport...
