Abstract

ABSTRACT In this paper, the usefulness of a mathematical model based on equations describing the diffusional phenomena which are variable with time, is developed and discussed in relation to serve as a model for experimental data of drying of Thompson seedless grapes. This model represents more closely the drying curves tested, than the classic diffusion model normally utilized to analize drying processes Biological products: mass transfermechanism of diffusionvariable diffusivitymodels
