Numerical analysis of spray-dic modeling for fruit concentration drying process into powder based on computational fluid dynamic

The drying process is most popular preservation methods. it is important in producing the powder and natural dye by concentration fruit drying. spray-dic is one of the concentration techniques for drying process using the nozzle flow application in computational fluid dynamic. the mathematical modeling for drying process in this paper includes mass conservation and energy conservation of fruit concentration based on partial differential equation. the discretization of mathematical model will use the finite difference method with the initial and boundary conditions of nozzle flow application. the mathematical modeling computes numerical in sequential algorithm. jacobi and gauss-seidel scheme will use to solve the linear system of mathematical modeling. the execution time,no of iteration,accuracy,root mean square error and maximum error are measured for investigating the numerical analysis. the results show the gauss seidel method is the alternative method compared to jacobi method for solving the spray-dic modeling. © 2016 penerbit utm press. all rights reserved.
