In this present work, performance study on drying mint leaves under the metrological conditions. Intensity of radiation falls on the absorber plate which transfers heat to forced air-flow inside the galvanized iron tube. Drying experiment carried out with 1 kg of mint leaves taken for drying process under the different mass-flow rate of 0.75 m/s and 1.25 m/s in serpentine flow of air. Performance of the collector and drying efficiency were 30.33% and 1.63% in first day at 0.75 m/s mass-flow rate and in the second day collector, the drying efficiency were 29.41% and 1.89% at the mass-flow rate of 1.25 m/s. The mass-flow rate of air decreased with increasing collector and drying efficiency.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
