Overview

Experimental study shows efficient drying kinetics for okra and tomatoes, indicating effective solar energy use.

Key Points

  • The average thermal efficiency of the solar dryer was found to be 22%, demonstrating its effectiveness.
  • Temperature monitoring revealed that the drying air reached 84°C under no load, ensuring rapid drying.
  • The drying kinetics exhibited a single decreasing phase, indicative of effective moisture removal.
  • This innovative direct solar dryer could significantly reduce post-harvest losses in agricultural products.
