A Non-Isothermal Moving-Boundary Model for Continuous and Intermittent Drying of Pears

A non-isothermal moving-boundary model for food dehydration, accounting for shrinkage and thermal effects, is proposed and applied to the analysis of intermittent dehydration in which air temperature, relative humidity, and velocity vary cyclically in time. The convection-diffusion heat transport eq...
