Characteristics and influencing factors of microwave drying


In the early stage of drying, the moisture content of materials is high, the ability of absorbing microwave energy is strong, the temperature rises rapidly, and the material temperature tends to be stable, so most of the water loss process of wheat is in the stage of constant-speed drying. In hot air drying and other radiation heating drying, the whole drying process can be divided into accelerated drying stage, constant drying stage and decelerated drying stage. Most of the water loss process of wheat is in a very slow deceleration stage.
This is because microwave has longer wavelength and better penetration than other electromagnetic waves used for radiation heating, such as infrared radiation. It can penetrate most non-metallic materials to a considerable depth. The drying materials are heated in the same table. The temperature gradient and humidity gradient in the materials are also consistent. The water migration speed in the materials is also consistent with the surface water. The evaporation rate kept constant for a long time.
1) The effect of microwave drying equipment on wheat quality is significant. The germination rate of wheat grain is sensitive to drying temperature and can be used as an index of wheat thermal damage. SDS sedimentation value is sensitive to drying power response and can show the trend of quality change. It can be used as an indicator of wheat quality change.
