Abstract
⺠Indirect, natural convection solar dryer designed with N-S reflectors on collector. ⺠Performance evaluation undertaken in January in Gujarat, India. ⺠Moisture content of “papad” reduced from 83.0% to 12.0% (w.b.) in 5 h. ⺠49.4% average collector efficiency matching computed results. ⺠13% drying efficiency when optimally loaded.
