The article covers results of research of drying process of apricot fruits by the method of three-stage energy supply. The main stages of drying have been defined, including: pulsed infrared heating, instantaneous pressure impact, convective drying. Optimal technological parameters of energy supply in the process of drying apricot fruits at each stage have been developed. The choice of the method for the experimental determination of the drying speed by the parameters of the drying agent for the capillary-porous material is substantiated. The sequence of changes in moisture content in a given material under the influence of a three-stage energy supply is described. The conditions for drying fruits are established and the values of the drying speed in the first period for various methods of energy supply have been selected.

AbstractThe effects of microwave-convective drying as an efficient drying method, on drying kinetics of hazelnuts were studied. Drying experiments were conducted at three temperature (40, 50 and 60°C) and microwave power (0, 450 and 900 W) levels. The moisture ratio and the temperature of the hazelnuts were recorded during the drying. The results showed that microwave power had a more dominant effect than drying air temperature. Mathematical modeling was performed in order to predict the moisture changes during drying process. It was concluded that two term and Midilli et al. models were the best models to predict the drying kinetics of hazelnut in different conditions. The effective moisture diffusivities varied from 3.80327×10‒8to 1.71233×10‒6m2/s and had an increasing polynomial relationship with temperature and microwave power. The activation energy was also between 15.61675 and 41.0053 kJ/mol with a second-order relationship with microwave power.

Studies on finding rational regimes for drying rapeseed based on drying kinetics and qualitative characteristics are presented. The value of the acid number of oil and laboratory germination of rapeseed on the 7th day of germination were taken as a qualitative characteristic. Experimental studies of the kinetics of the rapeseed drying process were performed on a convective drying stand using an automatic program for collecting and processing information, which makes it possible to obtain more accurate experimental data. According to the obtained experimental data with the help of an automatic program for collecting and processing information, graphs of the process kinetics from the influence of the coolant temperature are constructed. The presented graphs show the drying curves and drying speed curves that characterize the drying process that takes place during the period of falling drying speed. The study of the kinetics of the drying process of rapeseed in a single-stage mode at coolant temperatures of 50 - 80°C showed that for better quality it is necessary to use low-temperature modes. The acid number of oil in this temperature range does not change significantly and is 1.03 - 1.8 mg / g of oil. These values of the acid number of the oil correspond to the normative value. The greatest effect on the germination of rapeseed is observed from the temperature of the coolant. Increasing the temperature by 10 ° C in the temperature range from 50 to 80 ° C reduces the germination of the material. According to laboratory studies, we determined the drying regime of 50 ° С with a germination of 97% to be the most expedient and rational. All other drying regimes significantly reduce the germination of rapeseed and can not be recommended, as the germination value is less than the state standard of Ukraine 2240-93.

Нелинейность дифференциальных уравнений тепломассопереноса А.В. Лыкова и сложность в экспериментальном определении неизвестных коэффициентов, входящих в них, не позволяют получить аналитического решения, что обусловлено зависимостью коэффициентов переноса от температуры и влагосодержания материала. Известные аналитические решения получены лишь для тел канонической формы (пластина, цилиндр, шар). Однако эти решения громоздки и сложны по структуре, что сдерживает их практическое применение. Для построения математической модели процесса конвективной сушки в работе сформулированы упрощающие допущения: форма частицы рассматривалась в виде неограниченного цилиндра; пренебрегалось аксиальной влагопроводностью, термодиффузией, теплопроводностью отдельной частицы. Применение теоретических методов микрокинетики непрерывной сушки дисперсных материалов, основанных на описании кинетики сушки единичных частиц, сформулированных упрощений, начальных и граничных условий позволили получить систему дифференциальных уравнений в безразмерном виде, описывающую процесс сушки единичной частицы при прямоточно-противоточном продувании агента сушки через гравитационно-движущийся монослой высушиваемого материала. Данная система уравнений является упрощенной (не учитываются температурные градиенты, термодиффузия, распределенность источника теплоты в самой частице) и решена методом Рунге-Кутта четвертого порядка точности. Приводится графическая интерпретация результатов моделирования на примере сушки семян льна, получившего широкое применение в производстве технического масла. Погрешность моделирования не превышает 12,5 %. The nonlinearity of the differential equations of thermal mass transfer of A.V. Lykov and the difficulty in experimentally determining the unknown coefficients included in them do not allow us to obtain an analytical solution, which is due to the dependence of transfer coefficients on the temperature and moisture content of material. Known analytical solutions are obtained only for canonical bodies (plate, cylinder, ball). However, these solutions are cumbersome and complex in structure, which hinders their practical application. To build a mathematical model of the convective drying process, simplifying assumptions are formulated in the work: the shape of the particle was considered in the form of an unlimited cylinder; neglected axial WLA, thermodiffusion, thermal conductivity of an individual particle. The use of theoretical methods of microkinetics of continuous drying of dispersed materials, based on the description of the kinetics of drying of single particles, formulated simplifications, initial and boundary conditions, made it possible to obtain a sys-theme of differential equations in dimensionless form, describing the process of drying of a single particle during direct-flow countercurrent blowing of a drying agent through a gravitational-moving monolayer of a high-sutured material. This system of equations is simplified (temperature gradients, thermodiffusion, distribution of the heat source in the particle itself are not taken into account) and solved by the Runge-Kutt method of the fourth order of accuracy. A graphical interpretation of the simulation results is given on the example of drying of flax seeds, which has been widely used in the production of technical oil. The mode error does not exceed 12.5 %.

The aim of the study was to determine the effect of the method and temperature of the sublimation, vacuum and convective drying process on the kinetics of dehydration of the Moldovan dragonhead leaves, as well as on the physical and chemical properties, such as color coordinates, total content of phenolic compounds, antioxidant capacity, total monomeric anthocyanins content, total flavonoids content and content of essential oils. It was shown that the kinetics of the sublimation and vacuum drying process are best described by the logarithmic and Page models. Sublimation and vacuum drying were characterized by comparable process times. An increase in drying temperature caused a decrease in the content of phenolic compounds and antioxidant activity of the dried material and a significant change in the composition of essential oils. The lowest brightness of the dried material and the lowest color saturation was found after sublimation drying at 20 °C. The highest dried material quality was found in case of convective and sublimation drying at 20 °C.

Abstract The aim of the present theme issue was to study the influence of ultrasound enhancement on the kinetics of osmotic dehydration and the effect of convective drying from the point of view of drying time and quality of dried products. Apple fruit was used as the experimental material. The kinetics of osmotic dehydration with (UAOD) and without (OD) ultrasound enhancement were examined for 40% fructose and sorbitol solutions. The effective dehydration time of osmotic process was determined. Preliminary dehydrated samples with OD and UAOD were next dried convectively with (CVUS) and without (CV) ultrasound assistance. The influence of OD and UAOD on the kinetics of CV and CVUS drying was analysed. The parameters of water activity and colour change were measured for the assessment of product quality after drying process.

Abstract. The objective of this study is the kinetics process of drying of the pears cv. Conference, cv. Abate and cv. Lucas with a laboratory dryer, in order to identify at which level of humidity the maximum speed of evaporation is achieved and at which level of temperature and humidity pears slices begin to change (colour and shape) and to determine which one of the three tested varieties offers the best properties for drying, which will ensure that the final product is technologically and organoleptically the most acceptable. Drying parameters were the same for all three varieties: 2 hours at air temperature 90oC, 2 hours at air temperature 80oC, 2 hours at air temperature 70 C and 2 hours at air temperature 60o C.  The results showed that the sample of the cv. Conference has undergone the least oxidation process, rounded edges and shriveled slices, and samples of the cv Lucas showed the worst results. Following the drying process of all three varieties, it can be concluded that the cultivars Abate and Conference achieved the lower evaporation speed, unlike the cv. Lucas. The cultivars Conference and Abate have attained consistent drying and in this way the technological process was finished with a smaller temperature, resulting in a better quality of the final product. o

The results of experimental studies of the drying of capillary-porous materials of spherical shape from the influence of the temperature of the heat carrier are given.Spherical granules with a diameter of 2,2 mm were taken to determine the rational modes of drying of capillary-porous materials. For a better evaluation of the nature of the drying process, experimental design studies were carried out on a convective drying stand in an elementary layer.The program of automatic collection and processing of information allows obtaining data on changes in the mass and temperature of the sample during the removal of moisture, and also performs calculations of kinetics of drying in absolute and relative coordinates. This makes it possible to obtain and compare the kinetic and velocity characteristics of colloid capillary-porous materials drying faster, more accurately and reliably.By the method of Krasnikov V.V. the kinetics of drying of capillary-porous materials of spherical shape with a diameter of 2,2 mm with construction of a generalized drying curve with determination and calculation of drying coefficients is considered.The generalized curve of drying rate is constructed and obtained, which allows us to generalize the process of drying of a capillary-porous spherical material. Also, get the formula and determine the overall length of the drying process through the drying rate for each heat treatment.When comparing the values of the process length obtained by experimental studies and determined by the calculations, the experimental error from the calculation does not exceed 3%.The analysis of heat-mass-exchange processes of drying by means of calculations of temperature coefficient b, Rebinder Rb criterion, heat flow q and coefficient of heat transfer α from the influence of heat carrier temperature has been carried out.
