Modelling studies of guava drying and quality are presented using theoretical and statistical models by varying temperature from 55 to 75 °C and slice thickness from 3 to 9 mm. The quality of dried fruit was measured for its water activity, colour, vitamin C, and texture. The superposition technique with Midilli-Kucuk model showed efficiency in modelling the drying process with R (2) = 0.9991. The second-order polynomial equations adequately described the quality of dried guava with regression coefficient, R (2) > 0.7. Drying time was a good function of temperature and thickness (P
