Convective Drying of Nonporous Biological Solids A $3mm$ bed of wet nonporous biological solids was dried in a tray by blowing air with $20\%$ relative humidity across the top of the bed at $70C$ and atmospheric pressure. The data in Table P$11\mathrm{.}5$ were obtained for the drying of these solids:
