Principle of food high temperature dehydrator

A high temperature food dehydrator is a device used to remove water from food. The principle is based on the boiling of water, and by exposing the food to high temperatures, the water evaporates from the structure of the food, thus drying it out.

Food high temperature dehydrator is mainly composed of heating system, evaporation system, moisture removal system and control system. In the operation process, the dehydrated food is first placed on the tray of the dehydrator, and then the appropriate dewatering time and temperature are set through the control system. The dehydrator will heat the food at a set temperature, so that the water evaporates from the food, and then the base steam is discharged through the moisture removal system, thus completing the dehydration process.

High temperature food dehydrators take advantage of the boiling properties of water. When food is exposed to high temperatures, the water in it begins to heat up and turn into steam. At the same time as the steam forms, the dry ingredients in the food begin to become more concentrated. The steam is partially diffused to the surface of the food, and reversibly transformed, and then evaporated from the food.

Steam is generated because the thermal movement of water molecules increases at high temperature, and the distance between molecules decreases, thus forming a gas state. The generation of steam requires the consumption of heat, which is why it is heated at high temperatures. Once the water molecules reach the boiling point, the liquid water turns into a gas and quickly evaporates. After the water in the food evaporates, the moisture removal system of the dewatering machine will discharge the steam in time to maintain the stability of the dewatering environment.

The dehydration rate of a high temperature food dehydrator depends on a number of factors, including temperature, type and thickness of food. Higher temperatures can usually speed up the dehydration process, but it is important to note that excessive temperatures can adversely affect the quality of food. In addition, different types of food can differ in the dehydration process because different foods contain different proportions of water and other ingredients.

Food high temperature dehydrators are widely used. It can be used to dehydrate a variety of foods, including vegetables, fruits, meat and fish. Dehydration can reduce the volume and weight of food, extend its shelf life, and can be easily stored and transported. In addition, dehydration can also improve the taste and taste of food, making it more intense, so food high temperature dehydrator has a wide range of applications in the food processing industry.
