摘要
The transient mass transter processes in the natural drying of wood particle materials were experimental;y studied A new theory tio determme the mass transfer parameters in the Materials was developed in terms of gradient transformation method(GTM).By making use of GTM.Thewater vapour diffusion coefficient and the surtaee emission coefficent of wood chip were expermentally determined both in air phase and in solid phase.It Was found that the internal resistance to water vapour diffusion in the air phase of wood partiele aggregates is around ten to the third power as large as that in common air The drag coefficient was given to quantify the effect The phenomenon of undersurface diffusion in wood partiele bed was quantitatively modelled.The dimensionless Fourier snumber and the Biot's number for mass transfer were theoretically derived.The study showed that Biot's number for the problem investigated was the ratio of the characteristie length of wood partiele bed to the penetrating depth of the undersurface.An analytical solution of the nonlinear goveming equation for water transport process in the aggregates of wood chip was obtained by introducing the variable coefficients measured in the study into the governing equation.The comparison between the analytical solution and the observed moisture content of wood chip showed that the deviation was less than ±7%.The thermophysieal properties of wood particle materials are little known at present.The knowledge provided in the paper will be and in the handling.researeh or engineering application of wood chip.wood shavingsete.
