In this study, multi-stage intermittent drying (MSID) of rough rice is considered based on stress cracking index (SCI), tempering index (TI), and total drying/tempering duration for Hashemi and Koohsar varieties experimentally and theoretically. The samples were dried at 60 degrees C for 20, 40, and 60 min and tempered at 60 degrees C for 40, 80, 120, 160, 200, and 240 min after each drying stage. Afterward, the completion of the tempering process was assessed using the TI along with analysis of moisture content kinetics by a simplified drying model. For both varieties, the SCI decreased significantly until continuing the tempering operation to certain durations and increased for longer drying durations in each drying stage. Considering the SCI and the total drying/tempering duration, the tempering durations of 200 and 160 min after 40 min drying in each stage were determined as the best performed conditions for MSID of Hashemi and Koohsar varieties, respectively. The results achieved by the TI were in conformity with those obtained by the mathematical model. It was concluded that the TI and simulation of surface moisture content on a kernel could be applied for estimating the time required for supplementation of the tempering process to eliminate moisture content gradients created inside the kernels during the drying process.
