Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
• Experimental and modelled study of indirect solar drying of mango slices. • Forced convection dryer with hot air recycling improves heat and mass transfer. • Effective diffusivity ranges from 3.54 × 10−11 to 1.22 × 10−10 m2·s−1. • Midilli and Kucuk model best fits the drying kinetics (R2 ≈ 0.996). • Improved energy efficiency and product quality over open-air drying.
