Vacuum drying of wood with radiative heating: I. Experimental procedure
… of supplying energy with radiative emitters instead of heated plates would allow the heat and mass transfer on the main faces of the board to be maintained by convective ex- change, which would be a significant improvement to contin- uous vacuum kilns . … ex- change allows the moisture not only to be evacuated from the main faces of the board, but also allows the surface moisture content and temperature to be better controlled, which is of utmost importance for the quality of the dried lumber .
