Question: ( Geankoplis 9 . 6 - 2 1 1 . 3 4 kg blanched corns are dried in a pan of 0 . 4 5

(Geankoplis 9.6-211.34kg blanched corns are dried in a pan of 0.4570.457m from an initial moisture content of 78%(wet weight basis) to the critical moisture content of 2.4kgH2O?kg dry solid. The material is 25.4mm deep in the pan, and the sides and bottom can be considered to be insulated. Heat transfer is by convection from an air stream flowing parallel to the surface at a velocity of 3.05m/s. The air is at 65.6C and has a humidity of 0.010kgH2O??kg dry air. Predict the drying rate and drying time in the constant rate period. (1.951(kg)H2O?hm2,7.0(h))
