The vacuum drying characteristics of water-saturated porous media were studied experimentally. The water-saturated porous media, water-saturated sand layer, was heated by the isothermal bottom wall of the rectangular vessel. The vacuum drying rate and temperature distribution of the sand layer were measured and calculated under a variety of conditions of heated wall temperature, vacuum rate, and thickness of the test material. It was found that the drying rate due to the heat and mass teansfer is greatly influenced by the heated wall temperature, vacuum rate, and thickness of the test material.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of grain and veneer thickness on drying rate, required energy consumption, and drying defects such as checking, end waving, and burning during a far-infrared radiation drying process of decorative veneers of hard maple and beech. Most of the veneer could be dried from green to in-use moisture content within 30 to 360 seconds. The drying rates were significantly affected by veneer thickness, but there was little difference between edge-and flat-sliced veneers. The formation of checking during drying test was none or very slight. The percentages of the veneers defected by checks were higher in the flat-sliced veneers than in the edge-sliced veneers. The maximum end wavinesses in the flat-sliced veneers were almost 1.6 to 3 times larger than that in the edge-sliced veneers. All veneers were fee from burned marks during drying test.

This paper was aimed to study the drying kinetics of coffee and to investigate the thin-layer drying kinetics of coffee by using a convective air dryer. The coffee was dried for the temperatures of 40, 50 and $60^{\circ}C$ with relative humidity in the range of 14-25% the airflow rate fixed at 1 m/s. According to the experiment result, the drying rate curve showed that drying process took place only in the falling rate period. Seven thin layer drying models (Newton, Page, Henderson and Pabis, Logarithmic, Wang and Singh, Two terms, Modified Henderson and Pabis) were fitted to the experimental moisture content data. The Two-trem model was found to be a better model for describing the characteristics of coffee for the temperatures of 40, 50 and $60^{\circ}C$. The effective moisture diffusivity of coffee increased when the drying temperature increased. The value was in the range of $4.5028{\times}10^{-11}$ to $6.4803{\times}10^{-11}m^2/s$.

Purpose: This study was conducted to investigate the hot air drying characteristics of squash slices depending on the drying conditions (input air velocity, input air temperature, and sample thickness). Methods: The developed drying system was equipped with a controllable air blower and electric finned heater, drying chamber, and ventilation fan. Squash (summer squash called Korean zucchini) samples were cut into slices of two different thicknesses (5 and 10 mm). These were then dried at two different input air temperatures (60 and $70^{\circ}C$) and air velocities (5 and 7 m/s). Six well-known drying models were tested to describe the experimental drying data. A non-linear regression analysis was applied to determine model constants and statistical indices such as the coefficient of determination ($R^2$), reduced chi-square (${\chi}^2$), and root mean square error (RMSE). In addition, the effective moisture diffusivity ($D_{eff}$) was estimated based on the curve of ln(MR) versus drying time. Results: The results clearly showed that drying time decreased with an increase in input air temperature. Slice thickness also affected the drying time. Air velocity had a greater influence on drying time at $70^{\circ}C$ than at $60^{\circ}C$ for both thicknesses. All drying models accurately described the drying curve of squash slices regardless of slice thickness and drying conditions; the Modified Henderson and Pabis model had the best performance with the highest R2 and the lowest RMSE values. The effective moisture diffusivity ($D_{eff}$) changes, obtained from Fick's diffusion method, were between $1.67{\times}10^{-10}$ and $7.01{\times}10^{-10}m^2/s$. The moisture diffusivity was increased with an increase in input air temperature, velocity, and thickness. Conclusions: The drying time of squash slices varied depending on input temperature, velocity, and thickness of slices. The further study is necessary to figure out optimal drying condition for squash slices with retaining its original quality.

This study is conducted to analyze the drying characteristics of domestically produced Lycii Fructus for improving drying conditions which was dependant on the shape and materials of drying plate. The materials of the drying plates were steel, aluminum and ABS resin, and each plate was shaped semicircle, quadrangular pyramid, and triangle pyramid. Also, mesh plate, the most general type was included. In other words, 10 kinds of plates were made and tested. The test was conducted at $45^{\circ}C$, for 24 hours and moisture content was measured every 4 hours. The quality of tested Lycii Fructus was measured by colorimeter after drying. The experimental results show that regardless of species of Lycii Fructus, the drying rate of the aluminium plate shaped quadrangular pyramid was fastest, 3.11%w.b./h. Except the mesh plate, the drying rate of most plates was about over 2.52%w.b./h. The quality of Lycii Fructus dried on the aluminium plate shaped quadrangular pyramid was the highest, and it was easiest to separate the dried Lycii Fructus from the aluminum plate shaped quadrangular pyramid.

Recently electronic circuit pattern printing technologies like antennas of RFID process are paid attention. oven drying system is being used since drying and curing time of RFID Tag Gravure printing normally takes from 5 minutes and up to 30 minutes long. In this case the parental material which is of a sheet shape is possible, however, for a massive and a continuous production drying and curing process must be done on-line. This research compared and analyzed the an oven type drying device and a traditional hot-air drying device. Considering the experiment result, the cell depth that shows low resistivity, which doesn't consider the pattern difference, is $31{\sim}33{\mu}m$. Also, oven drying system showed some resistivity after around 120 seconds of drying time, and showed much better performance in minimum resistivity compared to the hot-air drying system.

상주 전통곶감의 고품질화를 위하여 곶감의 제조과정 중이 화학적인 품질특성 변화를 조사하였다. 건조기간 중 수분함량은 7∼14일 경에 감소 또는 완만하여 이 시기에 2차 표피의 형성을 예측할 수 있고, 이 표피가 곶감의 품질에 많은 영향을 주는 것을 알 수 있었다 또한 반건시의 수분함량을 45∼55%로 본다면 건조시작으로부터 25일 경에 반건시 제품이 완성됨을 알 수 있었다. 수분활성도 변화는 수분의 감소가 둔화되는 시기에 저하 속도가 증가하는 것을 알 수 있었고, 2차 표피의 형성이 수분활성도의 저하를 초래하는 것으로 판단된다. 중량변화는 21일경 가지는 급격히 감소하다가 그 이후는 완만히 감소하는 경향을 보였고, 곶감을 대량으로 제조하는 남장동 및 복룡동 곶감에서는 2차 표피가 형성되는 7∼14일 경 이후에는 표피의 경화현상에 의하여 수분증발 억제효과가 있어 중량감소가 완만하였다. 당도변화는 초기 감의 당도가 18∼27%이었으나, 건조7∼14일경 이후부터 급격히 증가하여 건조 21일경에는 40∼50%의 높은 값을 나타내었다 경도는 곶감의 품질을 결정하는 물리적 인자중 가장 중요한 요소로서 건조시작 후 7∼14일경에 감과육의 수분감소에 따라 경도가 낮아지는 경향을 보였고, 건조일수의 증가에 따라 일정 간격으로 감소되기 시작하였다. 관능평가에서는 곶감의 색, 단맛 및 조직감은 남장동곶감제품이 가장 좋은 점수를 얻었고, 떫은맛, 시큼한 맛 및 곰팡이 취는 복룡동 곶감제품이 가장 높았고, 전체적인 기호도는 남장동에서 제조한 곶감제품이 가장 좋게 나타났다.

건조산채의 안전저장 수분함량을 결정하기 위하여 네 가지 채소 즉, 호박고지, 고구마줄기, 토란대, 및 도라지의 건조특성과 등온흡습특성을 조사하였다. 이들 채소의 건조곡선은 초기의 평형조절기간과 항률건조기 및 감률건조기간의 3단계로 뚜렷하게 구분이 되었으며, 감출건조기는 종류에 따라 다시 $2{\sim}3$단계로 구분되었다. 감률건조곡선은 섬유질상 식품의 건조 특징인 위로 볼록한 형태를 보였으며, 임계수분함량은 호박고지가 $8.29{\sim}9.75$, 고구마줄기가 $10.40{\sim}15.08$ 토란대가 $9.51{\sim}14.52$, 도라지가 $3.29{\sim}3.56g\;H_2O/g$ dry solids였다. 감률건조기간 중의 건조속도에 대한 활성화에너지값은 호박고지가 2.30, 고구마줄기가 2.11, 토란대가 4.97, 도라지가 2.80 kcal/mol이었다. 각 채소의 단분자층 수분함량값은 건조시의 임계수분함량값과 유사하였는데, 호박고지가 $10.05{\sim}13.59$, 고구마줄기가 $9.49{\sim}12.69$, 토란대가 $9.50{\sim}16.48$, 도라지가 $5.01{\sim}5.44g\;H_2O/g$ dry solids였다. 결과적으로 이들 채소를 안전하게 저장하기 위해서는 수분함량을 단분자층 수분함량 이하로 또는 임계수분함량 이하로 건조시킬 필요가 있음을 알 수 있다.
