Critical Moisture Content based on Weight of Critical Moisture Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Critical Moisture Content = Critical Weight of Moisture/Dry Weight of Solid
X_c = M_c/W_S
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Critical Moisture Content - The Critical Moisture Content is the ratio of amount of moisture present in the solids at the transition of constant and falling rate period to that of the weight of dry solid.
Critical Weight of Moisture - (Measured in Kilogram) - The Critical Weight of Moisture is the amount of moisture present in the solid at which the constant rate drying period ends and the falling period starts at the given conditions.
Dry Weight of Solid - (Measured in Kilogram) - The Dry Weight of Solid is the weight of dry solid present in the system in the drying mass transfer operation.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Critical Weight of Moisture: 11 Kilogram --> 11 Kilogram No Conversion Required
Dry Weight of Solid: 100 Kilogram --> 100 Kilogram No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

X_c = M_c/W_S --> 11/100

Evaluating ... ...

X_c = 0.11

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.11 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.11 <-- Critical Moisture Content

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

What is Critical Moisture?

Critical moisture content refers to the moisture content at which a material undergoes a physical or chemical change. Above this level, the material may become too wet to handle, or it may deteriorate due to microbial growth or other factors. Below this level, the material may become too dry to function properly, or it may lose its mechanical or chemical properties. The critical moisture content can vary depending on the type of material and the specific application. It is important to maintain a material's moisture content within a safe range to ensure its quality and performance.

How to Calculate Critical Moisture Content based on Weight of Critical Moisture?
