How does it work? Because air has a viscosity, a thin stationary boundary layer exists at the surface of the web Molecules must diffuse through this layer to leave the material being treated Therefore, heat and mass transfer rates are limited by diffusion through the boundary layer using conventional solutions Image source - NASA Glenn Research Center Spectra HE TM Ultra Drying System.
