Subject(s): Online resources: In: International Journal of Heat and Mass TransferSummary: A new method is suggested for obtaining, on the basis of experimental data, an approximate equation of the drying curve in the form of error functions which satisfy an ordinary second-order differential equation associated with a diffusion equation. Examples of calculations are given which are carried out from the data on the drying of grain and low-pressure polyethylene.
