Bu araştırmanın amacı güneş enerji destekli laboratuvar tipi bantlı mikrodalga kurutucuda kabak dilimlerinin kurutularak toplam kurutma zamanını düşüren bir kontrol yapısı oluşturmaktır. Mikrodalga kurutucusu 0,245 m/dk bant hızı kullanılarak farklı üç mikrodalga gücünde (0,7, 1 ve 1,4 kW) çalıştırılmıştır. Deneylerde enerji sarfiyatını azaltmak için güneş enerjisinden elde edilen sıcak hava kurutma havası olarak kullanılmıştır. Bu çalışmada 5 mm kalınlığındaki kabak dilimlerinin kuruma davranışlarına olan etkisi incelenmiştir. Elde edilen sonuçlar Page, Henderson&Pabis, Two term exponential ve Wang&Singh kurutma modelleri kullanılarak en uygun modelin tespiti için karşılaştırılmıştır. Bu değerlendirmeler sonucunda tüm kuruma şartlarına göre Page Modelinin, ürünlerin kuruma davranışını açıklamada diğer modellere göre daha uygun olduğu belirlenmiştir.
In this study, a microwave energy conveyor dryer with the support of solar energy was researched with respect to its usability in the food industry and its short drying time and low energy requirements. The hot air produced using a collector (which was designed in the shape of a hemisphere for the purpose of getting high efficiency from solar energy) was transferred to a conveyor drying chamber operating with microwave energy at the speed of 0.245 m/min. Drying kinetics of the selected black radishes for the experiments were determined using samples sliced into 4, 6, and 8 mm. At the end of the drying, the duration and specific energy consumption for the drying process as well as color changes in the samples were measured, and the collector’s efficiency was calculated. In addition, as a result of statistical analysis, the most suitable model among the seven drying models was determined.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
