Design, Fabrication and Testing of Solar Air Dryer

Abstract

The Solar Powered Air Dryer is new technology basing on blending Solar Thermal. In our project the solar panel is used to convert the light energy to heat energy by flat plate collector method. The machine, solar air dryer, we introduce through our project is mainly useful for drying seeds, fruits and wherever moisture contents. In our project, the solar air dryer consists of four main parts such as solar panel, battery, heating element and blower. The blower is used to passing the hot air to the required place, so that the moisture contents in the place was removed. The size of our project is also portable. So we can move the ground dryer to any place very easily.
