The influence of drying parameters on wood properties
PublikacjaThe influence of drying conditions on wood properties is presented. The classical approach was used to determine energetic effects (cutting forces and cutting power) of wood sawing process on the basis of the wood specific cutting resistance, material constant. Before mashining wood material (soft and hard) was dryied at various conditions using air at 25oC, air-steam meaxture at 80oC and steam at 110oC.

The Impact of Drying Conditions on the Surface Color Changes of Pine Wood
PublikacjaThe article presents the impact of drying process and selected parameters on the color changes on the surface of pine wood (Pinus sylvestris L.). Three predetermined process conditions (modes), mild, normal, and intensive, were investigated. The experiments were conducted using a semi-industrial scale dryer designed at the Gdańsk University of Technology with a loading capacity of 0.55 m3. The drying process was applied to pine...

THE EFFECT OF DRYING INTENSITY ON THE COLOR CHANGES OF PINE WOOD (PINUS SYLVESTRIS L.)
PublikacjaThe effect of the selection of drying process parameters on the color change of Scots pine wood (Pinus Sylvestris L.) is presented. In this work the experimental studies have been performed. The research focused on the influence of drying intensity on the changes of color after drying process. Intensity of drying process was determined on the basis of the average drying gradient. To determine the color of wood before and after...

EFFECT OF PRESS DRYING ON DIMENSION STABILITY AND DENSITY OF BEECH WOOD,
PublikacjaTimber is traditionally dried in kilns by processes that often take several days or weeks to complete. At present, it is possible to apply several methods of rapid drying of timber, including, for example, press drying. This research is based on the use of this process. Drying was performed using the heating plates with a temperature of 160 °C. Three pressures were compared in the research 1.0 MPa, 1.4 MPa, and 1.8 MPa. The density...

Numerical analysis of vacuum drying of a porous body in the integrated domain
Publikacjan the present study, the vacuum drying process of an apple slice is numerically modeled based on a control volume method. Transient two-dimensional Navier– Stokes, energy, moisture, and Luikov equations are solved by numerical coding (Fortran) to simulate the simultaneous heat and mass transfer in the ambient and apple slice, respectively. The privilege of using Luikov's model is that the capillary forces are considered, and a...

Effect of the Drying Method of Pine and Beech Wood on Fracture Toughness and Shear Yield Stress
PublikacjaThe modern wood converting processes consists of several stages and material drying belongs to the most influencing future performances of products. The procedure of drying wood is usually realized between subsequent sawing operations, affecting significantly cutting conditions and general properties of material. An alternative methodology for determination of mechanical properties (fracture toughness and shear yield stress) based...

The dying medium temperature impact on the final moisture content of pine wood at constant drying time
PublikacjaThe results of final moisture content of pine wood (Pinus sylvestris L.) after drying process are presented. The wood in the experiments was taken from the northern part of Pomeranian region in Poland. The drying process was performed in the experimental chamber equipped with the micro-jet heat exchanger. The air at temperatures of 40°C, 60°C, 80°C, 100°C and 120°C with relative humidity about 60% and atmospheric pressure was the...

Influence of drying mode and feed per tooth rate on the fine dust creation in pine and beech sawing on a mini sash gang saw
PublikacjaThe experimental results of the study focused on the effect of drying processes of modified air drying and warm air steam mixture drying of pine and beech wood on the size of sawdust particles created in cutting using PRW-15M sash gang saw, are presented in the paper. Particle size analysis of dry sawdust was performed using two methods—sieving method and laser diffraction analysis. The results showed that the drying process did...

Predicting cutting power for band sawing process of pine and beech wood dried with the use of four different methods
PublikacjaWood drying is an important stage in the woodworking process. After drying, wood is subject to a re-sawing process, for which a high quality surface, low material loss, and high efficiency are often required. In this paper, forecasted values were presented of cutting power for the re-sawing process of pine and beech wood that were dried with four different methods. Forecasting of cutting power for an industrial band saw machine...

The effect of freeze-drying and storage on lysozyme activity, lactoferrin content, superoxide dismutase activity, total antioxidant capacity and fatty acid profile of freeze-dried human milk
PublikacjaPooled human milk samples were freeze-dried and stored for 6 weeks at a temperature of 5 C and 25 C. Freeze-drying decreased the water content of milk by 86.5%, and the obtained lyophilizate was readily soluble in water. The freeze-drying process did not affect superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, fatty acid (FA) profile or lactoferrin (LF) content, but it decreased total antioxidant capacity (TAC) of human milk by 22.1% and induced...
