Abstract:The equilibrium moisture contents of mango sheets were determined at 40–60°C and 11%–82% relative humidity (RH). The effects of RH and temperature of the drying air were investigated. The main objectives were: (a) to determine the moisture sorption isotherms and (b) to investigate the effects of applying hot air combined with RH control on mango sheet drying to imitate heat pump drying. Peleg's model was the best‐fitting model for the equilibrium moisture content. Controlling the RH at 15% clearly raised the d… Show more
