Modelagem matemática para descrição da cinética de secagem da polpa da manga cv. Espada

with addition of 1,5% and 1,5% Emustab® Super League Neutra® at different temperatures (50, 60 and 70 oC) and thickness of the foam layer (0,5 cm). With the data obtained during the drying kinetics were constructed drying curves and adjusted models & Pabis Henderson Henderson, logarithmic, and exponential Page two terms, the experimental data of drying kinetics. It was found that drying temperatures influence the drying time, with smaller drying times observed at the highest temperature. The drying by foam layer cv mango pulp. Sword with additives suffer influence of the drying temperature and the drying faster at higher temperatures. Drying time is reduced faster by increasing the drying air temperature. The model of Henderson was what he described in a more satisfactory manner the drying of the foam data, with the highest coefficient of determination and the lowest mean square deviation in temperatures of 50, 60 and 70 °C and thicknes of 0,5 cm.
