Temperature Distribution and Boundary Condition on Heat Transfer from Discretized Element of Dried Ginger Rhizome Using MATLAB PDES for Optimal Preservation

Experimental Analysis of Thin Layer Drying of Ginger Rhizome in Convective Environment

“…In Nigeria, the harvesting period is usually in July, while in areas like Hawaii and the USA harvesting season is in December. Gingers grows up to 125cm high under conducive environments and it is an annual crop [3,4]. It is grown for its pungently aromatic underground stem or rhizome which is an important export crop valued for its powder, oil, and oleoresin, all of which have both food and medicinal value [5].…”
