Estimation of moisture ratio for apple drying by convective and microwave methods using artificial neural network modeling

Abstract Two different drying methods were applied for dehydration of apple, i.e., convective drying (CD) and microwave drying (MD). The process of convective drying through divergent temperatures; 50, 60 and 70 °C at 1.0 m/s air velocity and three different levels of microwave power (90, 180, and 3...
