- •
Microwave radiation is implemented to reduce the energy demand for drying.
- •
Simultaneous impact of microwave and hot air on energy and time consumption was analyzed.
- •
Minimum drying time occurs with combined utilization of microwave and hot air.
- •
Thermal efficiency was desirable in low air velocities and high temperatures.
- •
Thermal efficiency of microwave radiation increased by 200% compared to single hot air method.
