Why you are doing initial moisture content critical moisture content and equilibrium moisture content test?

if we know initial moisture content of the object we can identify how much drying energy required for dry the same moist material. if it is a food material we have to reduce the moisture content upto certain level, otherwise it may be destroyed. if we know the initial moisture content of same food object, we can reduce its moisture content upto 10% of its initial moisture content.

How do you determine the moisture value in fruits and vegetables?

The moisture content can be calculated by weighing the fruit and then placing it in a drying oven for a definite period of time then removing and weighing again. If you continue this until there is no more loss of weight. The initial weight minus the final weight is the weight of water. this difference multiplied by 100 and divided by the initial weight will give you the percent moisture content.

How does a moisture meter give a reading of the moisture content of wood?

By passing an electrical current from one pin to the other. The greater the moisture content, the higher the resistance. By measuring the resistance, it gives an estimate of the average moisture content. I think. 2009/03/14 - Correct, but exactly backwards .... Moisture (water) can be a conductor. Dry wood is an insulator. The higher the moisture content, the lower the resistance and vice-versa. Wood with a high moisture content gives a low resistance to the tester and conducts the test voltage better.
