| Abstract | Equilibrium moisture contents were obtained for Caraway (Carum Carvi L.) at 25 and 40°C experimentally over a range of relative humidity values of 23 – 85 %. Seven models were tested to fit the experimental data of caraway. The Peleg model showed the best fit with higher R2 value and lowest root mean square error. Monolayer moisture contents, obtained from BET equation, were found to be 0.0488 and 0.0274 g water/g dry matter and surface area of monolayer is 170.90 and 95.83 m2/g at 25 and 40°C respectively. Physical properties such as mass, volume, true density, geometric mean diameter, degree of sphericity and surface area of Caraway were measured. |
