Analytical solution of freeze-drying mathematical model based in Darcy's law: application to an orange juice-based cake

An analytical solution for moisture dynamic during freeze-drying based in non-ideal Darcy's law that resolves the singularity at zero time was deducted. The non-ideal Darcy's law is represented by a Darcy's pseudo permeability ( ) and a deviation index ( ). The analytical solution mus...

Description
Summary:An analytical solution for moisture dynamic during freeze-drying based in non-ideal Darcy's law that resolves the singularity at zero time was deducted. The non-ideal Darcy's law is represented by a Darcy's pseudo permeability ( ) and a deviation index ( ). The analytical solution must be complemented with a numerical solution of Fourier's equations for heat transfer in the two product zones. The model was fitted to experimental freeze-drying dynamics of an orange juice-based cake. The Darcy's pseudo permeability obtained was 2.0X10 −12 m 2.5 with an ideal deviation index of 0.5. The proposed equations, solved with fitted Darcy pseudo permeability and ideal deviation index, reproduced other experimental freeze-drying dynamics of the same product at different temperatures.
