Abstract

The analysis of shape before and after heating, Surface moisture content, Moisture weight change and surface heat distribution by fixed type microwave heating in forms of flat veneer and veneer roll of Korean pine, pitch pine, larch and yellow poplar was conducted. The results were as follows: In case of flat veneer, the quality after microwave heating was comparatively good, but it was somewhat warped. These phenomena may be due to transformation by nonuniform drying stress and stronger effect of local irradiation on the veneers when heating veneer owing to the characteristics of fixed type microwave equipment. In case of the features of roll-shaped veneer heated by microwave, the quality after heating was comprehensively excellent. Especially there was no warping unlike flat veneer. Heat distribution and diffusion were also very stable for roll-shaped veneer and such heat distribution had much influence on surface moisture content and moisture weight loss. Accordingly, the veneer roll would show sufficient drying efficiency in fixed type microwave equipment through a scrutinized examination on generating power and irradiation time according to species and thickness of veneer.

잣나무, 리기다소나무, 낙엽송, 백합나무 등 수종과 두께가 다른 평단판 및 단판롤(롤 형태의 단판)을 고정형 마이크로파로 가열하여 가열 전후 형상, 표면 함수율, 함수중량 변화와 표면 열분포를 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 평단판의 경우 마이크로파 가열에 따른 품질상태는 비교적 양호한 것으로 나타났지만, 약간의 뒤틀림이 발생하였으며, 이는 비균일 건조응력에 따른 변형과 고정형 마이크로파 장비의 특성상 단판 형태로 가열 시 국부적인 조사가 이루어진 영향이 컸기 때문으로 판단된다. 단판롤 형태의 마이크로파 가열 특성은 가열 후 품질 모두 양호하였으며, 특히 평단판에서 나타난 뒤틀림 등의 결함은 없는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 열분포 및 확산 등이 매우 안정적으로 이루어진 것으로 판단되며, 이러한 열분포는 표면 함수율 분포 및 함수중량 감소에 많은 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 단판롤 형태는 수종 및 두께에 따라 출력과 조사시간 등 충분한 시험이 실시된다면, 고정형 장비에서도 충분한 건조효율을 나타낼 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
