The correct option is (a) Mechanisms of heat and mass transport phenomena

Easy explanation: Drying constant describes the mechanisms of heat and mass transport phenomena and investigates the influence that certain process variables exert on moisture removal processes. Drying constant is measured through experimental studies of material moisture content removal versus time at various drying conditions.
