Physicochemical and Thermal Evaluation of a Mixed-Mode Greenhouse Solar Dryer for Guava (Psidium guajava L.). [PDF]
J Food SciABSTRACT The present study aimed to evaluate the quality and nutritional properties of guava slices dried in a greenhouse solar dryer (operated under mixed and direct modes) and an electric stove at 50°C. The results showed that mixed‐mode solar drying resulted in greater retention of vitamin C (112.60 mg/100 g), carotenoids (0.37 mg/g), and ...

Analytical Modeling of DSG in Parabolic Trough Solar Collectors [PDF]
Proceedings of the ISES Solar World Congress 2011, 2011 Direct steam generation (DSG) in the absorber pipes of parabolic trough solar collectors is a promising procedure since the thermal fluid is water instead of thermal oil, as conventional solar concentrating systems use. It enables higher cycle temperatures and efficiencies, reducing the cost of the system.
