Sažetak
Sour cherry (Prunus cerasus) has been one of the most valuable fruits due to its aromatic fruits. It is important for its nutritive, healing, dietetic and technolgical values. Drying is one of the oldest food preservation techniques, nowadays widely used for fruit and vegetable. Drying method that shows great perspective in high quality dried products today is the vacuum drying. The main advantages of vacuum drying technique are the uses of low drying temperatures and the absence of oxygen, which prevents oxidation processes in the product. The aim of this work is to examine the suitability of chosen mathematical models for aproximation of experimental results of sour cherry drying in the vacuum dryer. Mathematical modeling of experimental results using 11 mathematical models for describing the drying kinetics (Page, modified Henderson-Pabis, Peleg, Newton, modified Page, logarithmic, Midilli et al., Wang & Singh, two-term, two-term exponential i diffusion approximation) showed very good correlation of mathematical values and experimental data.
