“…Romuli et al (2019) and Chauhan and Kumar (2016) also observed increased temperature of drying air. The present study corroborates with the findings of Alonge et al (2012) who reported that the maximum 0 temperature (51 C) was obtained in direct passive solar dryer as 0 compared to 38 C of ambient temperature. The range of relative humidity was 17% to 63% inside the GTSD as compared to 26% to 49% under SD (Fig.…”

“…Ezekoye and Enebe [ 53 ] reported the drying rate for groundnuts under NCDSD and open sun drying as 0.198 and 0.1 g/day, respectively. Alonge and Adeboye [ 75 ] evaluated the drying rate for pepper, okra, and vegetables under NCDSD as 3.94, 17.65, and 13.33 kg/hour, respectively. Eke [ 55 ] reported that an NCDSD with metal, wood, cement, and mud as absorbing materials took 76, 96, 96, and 94 h, respectively, for the drying of tomatoes.…”

“…Solar wind-ventilated cabinet dryer (Bolaji et al, 2011). Alonge and Adeboye (2012) in their evaluation study of the drying rates of some given fruits and vegetables, obtained that direct passive solar dryer gives better results when the fruits like pepper, okra and vegetables were dried as regards to indirect passive solar dryer. The experiment also helped in confirmation of other research works carried out by showing that, the drying rate of the crops occurred in falling rate period.…”
