Thermal Analysis of Solar Utilization Dryer for Redpepper Drying

고추건조를 통한 태양열 건조기의 열성분석

The heat transfer analysis is performed on unloaded solar utilization dryer, and thermal performance for a prototype model while drying red-pepper is also investigated. Results of theoretically derived thermal equations are in good agreement with experimental data. This constructed feature of the prototype demonstrates the excellent technical drying performance. Finally, this paper recommends the further work to develop advanced and economic solar utilization multi-purpose dryer.
