It is necessary to understand the drying behavior, quality of the products and time required to optimize the energy consumption of the process. The optimum velocity and temperature of drying air for good quality dried anchovy fish was determined. In average, the fish are 7 cm in length and 3.0-3.5 g in mass. Although some research on fish drying has been done, the study of drying of anchovy fish and its characteristic has not been well reported. The fish to be dried were arranged on 15 × 15 cm2 tray in the drying chamber of 17 × 30 cm2. The hot air of 40 -70 ℃ was delivered parallel to the tray with the velocity of 0.6 and 0.9 m s-1. It is found that thermal conductivity (k) and specific heat (cp) of anchovy fish are function of the moisture content (MC). The higher moisture content results in higher thermal conductivity and specific heat. Critical water content is also found in this experiment as well as the optimum drying condition. Drying rate period of anchovy fish will change from the constant drying rate period to the falling drying rate period when critical moisture content is about 48.8%-50.3% (wet basis). At these experiments, there is no case-hardening, even at temperature of 70 ℃. To achieve the optimum result, the drying process should be implemented in three steps, drying process at 70 ℃ for 150 min followed by drying at 50℃ for 100 min, and finally drying at 40℃ till achieving equilibrium moisture content. This research will contribute to improvement of drying method to achieve good quality of dried fish.展开更多
