Development of conjugate heat- and moisture-transfer model for pineapple drying using OpenFOAM

The kinetic model of drying is important for food preservation, particularly for pineapples, which have a high moisture content and are highly perishable. This paper presents a novel approach utilizing OpenFOAM, which is an open-source computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software, to model the hot-ai...
