Modeling of Dielectric Heating within Lyophilization Process

الملخص EN

A process of lyophilization of paper books is modeled.

The process of drying is controlled by a dielectric heating system.

From the physical viewpoint, the task represents a 2D coupled problem described by two partial differential equations for the electric and temperature fields.

The material parameters are supposed to be temperature-dependent functions.

The continuous mathematical model is solved numerically.

The methodology is illustrated with some examples whose results are discussed.
