Finite element simulation of drying of longan fruit
A two-dimensional finite element model has been developed to simulate moisture diffusion in longan fruit during drying and moisture diffusivities of the components of longan fruit determined experimentally are used in this simulation. Shrinkage of the flesh of longan during drying is also taken into...
