2. Creep, deformation and moisture redistribution during air convective wood drying and conditioning : air convective wood drying and conditioning
Abstract : Air convective wood drying is associated with a considerable risk for damage to the timber, especially checking and warping. This thesis contains an analysis of creep and deformation during wood drying related to stress development and susceptibility of checking. Also heat and mass transfer problems in the wood drying process are considered. READ MORE

3. Superheated Steam Drying of Wood Chips in Pneumatic Conveying Dryers
Abstract : This thesis contains a fundamental investigation of a pneumatic conveying dryer. The model presented can be used both for design and rating purposes and, although the main emphasis is put on the drying of wood chips in superheated steam, the results can be used for other systems as well.

4. Drying of Multicomponent Liquid Films
Abstract : The convective drying of thin layers of multicomponentliquid mixtures into an inert gas, and the influence ofdifferent process controlling mechanisms on drying selectivityis studied. Drying experiments under gas-phase-controlledconditions are performed by low intensity evaporation, fromfree liquid surfaces, of ternary mixtures without non-volatilesolutes. READ MORE

5. Modelling of Mass and Heat Transport in Paper - Evaluation of Mechanisms and Shrinkage
Abstract : In this work a one-dimensional model for the mass and heat transport in the thickness direction of paper has been developed. Solid-based coordinates were applied to simplify incorporation of shrinkage. Liquid diffusion, gas convection and vapour and air diffusion were incorporated as mass transport mechansims. READ MORE
