In addition, superheated steam drying of wood is a promising technology but this has notbeen widely accepted commercially, partially due to the lack of understanding of the dryingphenomena occurred during drying. In this work, experimental investigation was performed to quantifythe heat transfer between wood surface and surrounding moist air or superheated steam. In theexperiment, saturated radiata pine sapwood samples were dried using dry-bulb/wet-bulb temperaturesof 60℃/50℃, 90℃/60℃, 120℃/70℃, 140℃/90℃, 160℃/90℃, 140℃/100℃ and 160℃/100℃. The lasttwo schedules were for superheated steam drying as the wet-bulb temperature was set at 100℃. Thecirculation velocity over the board surface was controlled at 4.2m·s^(-1). Two additional runs(90℃/60℃) using air velocities of 2.4 m·s^(-1) and 4.8 m·s^(-1) were performed to check theeffect of the circulation velocity. During drying, sample weight and temperatures at wood surfaceand different depths were continuously measured. Prom these measurements, changes in woodtemperature and moisture content were calculated and external heat-transfer coefficient wasdetermined for both the moist air and the superheated steam drying.展开更多

The experimental results show that number of tangles of interlaced yarn changes little with air pressure from 0.2 MPa to 0.5 MPa, and the number of tangles has a maximum value with yarn speed changing. For two yarn directions of entering and leaving yarn guide of interalcer, the yarn speed for the maximum number of tangles is 400 m/rain and 600 m/rain, respectively. The number of tangles changes with air pressure and yarn speed for two yarn directions is compared.展开更多

And the best processing technology of squid chips was determined. The results showed that crispy squid chips can be obtained by frying the squid after vacuum freeze-drying, and the best processing technology of squid chips is to treat the material by hot air drying at 160℃ for 4 min after pretreatment, seasoning, protease treatment, pre-freezing and freeze-drying. The squid chips made by this technology have a flavor of frying, tightly-shrunken surface tissue, a little browning, less hardness, crispness and no greasy taste.展开更多

By combining the M-cycle with an open Brayton cycle, a new cycle, is known as the MCTC （Maisotsenko combustion turbine cycle）, was formed. The MCTC used an indirect evaporative air cooler as a saturator with a gas turbine engine. The saturator was applied on the side of the turbine exhaust （M-cycle#2） in the analysis. The analysis included calculations and the development of an EES （engineering equation solver） code to model the MCTC system performance. The resulting performance curves were graphed to show the effects of several parameters on the thermal efficiency and net power output of the gas turbine engine. The models were also compared with actual experimental test that results from a gas turbine engine. Conclusions and discussions of results are also given.展开更多
