초록
A Far Infrared Ray (FIR) dryer was designed , constructed and tested for red pepper , lycium chinese, and mushroom (Cortiellus shiitake ) drying , and the results were compared to the heated air dryer at the same condition. In the FIR dryer, three different panel materials , galvanized, copper and stainless steel, were used and no ceramic coating and those with ceramic coating (three panels) were 58% , 56%, 64%, and 88% , respectively. The drying times of lycium chinese and mushroom were shortened in FIR dryer by 6 hrs and 4 hrs compared to the heated air drying, respectively. while to remarkable difference in the drying times was found in the red pepper drying . The quality of products was better in FIR dryer where more red color value for red pepper and lycium chinese and more brightness for mushroom . The drying performance of a FIR dryer was superior in terms of total cost of 80,800 WON /100kg of lycium chinese , reduced by 25% compared to the heated air drying.
