Apple shrinkage upon drying
1995
Sjoholm, I. | Gekas, V.
In this paper results from a study of the shrinkage of Mutsu apple slices during drying in a convective oven are presented. The results are expressed as relationships between volume and thickness reduction as well as between volume reduction and water content. No differences were observed with respect to slice size. Volume change was correlated to thickness change through an exponent of 1.50 +/- 0.24 for all samples measured. Volume change was linearly correlated with water content with r = 0.95.
