Drying Technology ( IF 2.7 ) Pub Date : 2021-02-03 Robert Haide, Stephanie Fest-Santini, Maurizio Santini
Abstract
Drying processes in porous materials and their optimization are of interest in research and in many industrial applications. X-ray micro-computed tomography presents a versatile instrument for the experimental investigation of those processes in three-dimensional on a microscopic level. In this review article, the basic principles of the technique shall be elucidated and an overview of the existing literature shall be given. Published studies performed with laboratory-based tomography setups and at synchrotrons are included alike. Different experimental workflows and their limitations with focus on the investigation of drying processes are considered, as well as the further usability of the obtained data and insights for the validation of analytical models and numerical simulations. The number of publications on this topic has greatly increased in the early 2000s and there is still research demand.

X射线计算机断层扫描技术在多孔介质干燥过程研究中的应用
摘要
多孔材料中的干燥工艺及其优化在研究和许多工业应用中都引起关注。X射线微计算机断层扫描技术提供了一种用于在微观水平上对这些过程进行三维三维实验研究的多功能仪器。在这篇综述文章中,应阐明该技术的基本原理,并对现有文献进行概述。包括以实验室为基础的层析成像设置以及在同步加速器上进行的已发表研究均是如此。考虑了不同的实验工作流程及其在干燥过程研究中的局限性,以及所获得数据的进一步可用性和对分析模型和数值模拟的验证的见解。
