Abstract

In the present work, the influence of microwave power and samples thickness on drying behavior, moisture diffusivity and energy consumption of potato slices was studied. The slices with thicknesses of 3.5, 5, 7 and 9 mm were dried as mono layers at four different power levels (200, 400, 600 and 800 W). The results showed that the process time was significantly (P
