Abstract This study focused on the heat and mass transfer in radio (RF) assisted heat pump (HP) drying of carrots. The experimental drying of carrot by RF
assisted HP drying method was conducted to evaluate the effect of RF power on drying efficiency including drying rate and heating rate. The input
drying parameters were drying air temperature of 45oC, drying air velocity of 2.5 m/s and RF power of 0, 0.5 and 1.5 kW, in which, RF power of 0
was corresponding to HP drying method. The experimental drying results showed that in RF assisted HP… More >
