Computational fluid dynamics was applied in the prediction of effect inlet temperature on drying time fish a cabinet rotary dryer. On completion simulation, distribution air (fluid domain) within drier at different temperatures and intervals obtained. Inlet ranging from 35oC to 55oC simulated for interval 10 minutes 120 so as examine influence process fish. Based this range, it observed that id...

Fish as a source of animal protein is fishery commodity that prone to quality deterioration and spoilage after the fish caught, so it needs fast, precise correct handling keep its in hands consumers. There for necessary have process extends durability through drying. One drying alternative use Solar Air Heater with an Ultra Violet (UV) Dryer house by making building made transparent material fu...

the objective of this study was to investigate the drying kinetics of oyster mushroom, pleurotus ostreatus mushrooms were dried using a cabinet-type convective dryer. air temperatures of 50, 60 and 70 oc were used for the drying experiments. the experimental drying data were fitted to different theoretical models to predict the drying kinetics. nonlinear regression analysis was performed to rel...

a thin layer solar drying method was compared with a traditional method (sun drying) of paddy drying, with their effects on quality characteristics of two varieties of iranian rice (kamphiroozi and sazandegi) studied. solar drying process was conducted in a passive, mixed mode type solar dryer at about 50ºc for 90 minutes. in sun drying method this process took 8-10 hours at a mean temperature ...

The current study aims to determine the performance of a rack-type solar dryer. dryer uses heat absorber in form large wave plate and small which is placed collector room. dried material cassava. system used natural air flow due density differences. research was carried out by making two collectors, difference being used, one other wave. test simultaneously between dryers. In this study, result...
