Effects of Ultrasound on Mass Transfer within the Boundary Layer during Wood Vacuum Drying

Ultrasound was applied to enhance mass transfer within the boundary layer during wood vacuum drying. Fast growing poplar (Populus tomentosa) was used as the specimen in this work. The water migration rates and the mass transfer coefficients were studied at temperatures of 35 and 50 °C, absolute pres...
