Assignment:
In a wood chemistry/wood physics lab, we were asked to place a piece of wood that contained approx. 64% moisture content in a hydraulic press where we applied a constant 400 psi pressure and applied a constant 400 degrees F of heat. We inserted a Type K thermocouple into the piece of wood so we could record internal wood temperature. The data set we derived from the experiment was a time temperature curve that is shown in the attached. The data indicates the total amount of water removed during this experiment.
