Description :
The solar drying system gives duel benefit of solar drying as well as the solar electric energy generation. It includes the photovoltaic panel for energy generation. Due to forced air circulation it works in low temperature which results in increase in efficiency and life of panel also. In present research, we apply this technique for the Mango Cuts and Kasoori Methi for study the drying rate. The method applied for present study is indirect solar drying. The main objective of present study is to study the accuracy and control mechanism of indirect solar dryer. Finally we observed that, by using indirect forced convection method we got the good quality of the fruits for the longer time.
