A Study on Combined Infrared and Microwave Drying of Wood

An experimental dryer was developed for determining the moisture content of slab woods in variable drying times. Moisture contents were examined using different models. The drying data were fitted to the different semi-theoretical models such a Lewis, Page, new modified page, and Henderson and Pabis. Among the results obtained, the high level of correlation between the measured and calculated data justifies the new modified Page model.
