Abstract

The Debye equation and its derivatives were used to analyze experimental permittivity data of twenty-three kinds of fresh fruits and vegetables over the frequency range from 3 to 20 GHz. Cole-Cole plots and the e ε‘-vs.-ωε” line were found useful in determining how well experimental data fit the Debye-type relaxation, whereas estimates of dielectric parameters provided by the ε‘-vs.-ε/”ω line were subject to problems attributed to ionic conduction and sensititivty to measurement errors at the lower frequencies.
