Simulation of a solar dryer for use in developing countries

This paper examines the implementation of solar dryers in developing countries. Simulations were carried out using a simple model of a solar dryer to validate the drying process for various crops and fish products. The solar dryer simulator model in this research is designed as a multi-level, inclin...
