Performance Evaluation Of Indirect Moda Active Cabinet Solar Dryer Prime With Solar Cell

ABSTRACT

 Drying is very important process applicable for agricultural and industrial products. It is the moisture removing process from the products. Drying reduces the bacterial growth in the products. Open sun drying is the oldest method of products drying. It is used frequently to dry the agricultural products. But this method has some disadvantages. Therefore, to avoid these disadvantages different solar dryers are designed for drying process with application of solar energy and they are classified with mode of air circulation. In this project work, the performance of indirect mode active cabinet solar dryer prime with solar cell was evaluated using 3 agricultural produce; cassava chips, tomato and periwinkles.
