convert and calculate moisture content from wet basis to dry basis in drying

Moisture content as a fraction in wet basis (XW, moisture)

Moisture content is expressed as a fraction compared to the total weight of the material (weight of moisture + weight of dry material). Therefore, moisture content as a fraction in wet basis vary from 0 to 1.



Moisture content as a percentage value in wet basis (XW, moisture)

Moisture content as a fraction in wet basis is multiplied by 100 to calculate moisture content as a percentage value in wet basis. It varies from 0% to 100%.
