Performance evaluation of solar dryer system for optimal operation: mathematical modelling and experimental validation

Abstract: An analytical moisture diffusion model which considers the influence of external resistance to mass transfer is developed. The methodology to determine constant and variable moisture diffusion coefficients, D eff is proposed. A laboratory model of mixed-mode solar dryer is constructed to perform 16 experiments for different performance dependent variables under simulated indoor conditions. The potatoes (Solanum tuberosum) of Kufri Safed variety have been chosen as the test food product. The range of variables … Show more
