Title
Drying Behaviour and Mathematical Modeling of Mistletoe (Viscum Album L.) in UV Combined Convective Drier
Abstract
The thin layer drying behavior of Viscum album L. (mistletoe) leaves was investigated in UV combined convective drier. Drying air temperatures and velocities were selected as 60-70 and 80OC, and 0.5-1 and 1.5m/s respectively. Drying curves obtained by using experimental data were fitted to the six models reported in the literature. Comparing the determination of coefficient (R), reduced chi- square (χ2) values of six models, it was obtained that the Modified Page model represents the best fitting.
