Abstract

The initial moisture adsorption of soybeans was examined under the conditions : RH, 57-86% ; temperature, $16^{\circ}-34^{\circ}C$, and storage time, 100 hours. The changes in moisture content as a function of time held a relation: log dw/dt=b log t + log a, where w is the moisture content (%, db), t is time (hour) and a and b are the parameters which were calculated from the experimental data. The calculated moisture content from the equation agreed well with the measured moisture content. The activation energy of initial adsorption rate was about 15500cal/g-mole in all soybeans. The initial adsorption rate at temperature $16^{\circ}-28^{\circ}C$ could be estimated from a following equation : log(log dw/dt)=-15500/2.303RT.

콩을 상대습도 57-86%, 온도 $16^{\circ}-34^{\circ}C$에서 100시간 저장할 때, 콩의 초기홉습은 다음 식으로 표시되었다. log dw/dt=b log t+log a. 여기에서 w는 수분함량(%), t는 시간이다. 식으로부터 계산한 저장시간(t)에 따른 수분함량(w)은 실측치와 잘 일치하였다. 초기 흡습속도의 활성화에너지는 상대습도에 상관없이 15,500cal/g-mole 정도이었고 시료간에 큰 차이를 보이지 않았다. 저장온도 $16^{\circ}-28^{\circ}C$에서의 콩의 흡습속도는 다음과 같이 표시될 수 있었다. log(log dw/dt)=-15,500/2.303 RT.
