Descripción
Reanalysis of the drying background in wheat showed that analytical solutions may be employed in this grain to estimate diffusion coefficients by using the simplified equation for short times instead of the time-consuming series. Sixteen thin-layer drying curves of hard wheat were measured (airflow ≈ 0·3 kg m−2s−1) covering four air temperatures (35–70°C) at each of four initial moisture content levels (0·189–0·269 decimal, d.b.). Experimental curves of the moisture ratio versus time grouped by initial moisture content showed the expected strong accelerating effect of temperature on drying rate. Besides, when the same curves were grouped by temperature, the moisture ratios corresponding to higher initial moisture contents fell, after some time, consistently faster, showing that the diffusion coefficient should increase somehow with water concentration. The short time simplified diffusive equation fitted each curve very well, with values of the coefficient of determination above 0·99. Values of the diffusion coefficient for the whole kernel ranged from 1·4×10−11to 7·1×10−11m−2s−1, presenting the classical Arrhenius temperature dependency (activation energy ≈ 27·0 kJ mol−1), but with a pre-exponential factor that depends linearly on initial moisture content. This diffusive kinetics is expected to be useful for fast and accurate dryer simulation.
