Abstract
Drying of bambara beans was studied at 40oC at every 30 minutes in a Laboratory oven. Effective moisture diffusivity ranges between 5.886 x 10-10 m2/s – 4.354 x 10-10 m2/s respectively. The statistical criteria used in evaluation of the model were maximum coefficient of determination R2 and minimum root mean square error [RMSE]. Determination for goodness of fit statistics for drying of the beans was carried out. Midilli model was used to predict the drying curve. The Midili model was found to produce accurate predictions for all the four varieties of bambara beans and the model was shown to be an excellent model for predicting drying behavior of TVSU-47 and the R2 value was 0.9971 and the value of root mean square error was 0.0149 respectively.
