Simulation of Hybrid Solar Dryer

IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2013
The efficient performance of a solar dryer is mainly depending on the good distribution of the thermal and flow field inside the dryer body. This paper presents simulation results of a solar dryer with a biomass burner as backup heater. The flow and thermal fields were simulated by CFD tools under different operational modes.
