Effect of slices' thickness on changes in physical properties of the root celery during drying

The effect of particle size on the volume and density of dried celery root was studied. Particle size structure significantly affected the density of dried material. The results confirmed correctness of a theoretical equation where the density is a function of volume fraction of particular phases an...

Summary:The effect of particle size on the volume and density of dried celery root was studied. Particle size structure significantly affected the density of dried material. The results confirmed correctness of a theoretical equation where the density is a function of volume fraction of particular phases and the densities of these phases, determined in experimental way. The density of experimentally determined solid phase together with the gaseous phase, was the higher, the lower was initial thickness of celery slices, as the changes in volume of dried slices of least thickness were the highest
