Determination of a certain number of drying parameters of a solar dryer equipped with a concrete storage system
The conservation of agricultural products constitutes a problem for Burkinabè farmers in particular. They use more preservation methods including solar drying. However, the majority place their products on plastic films, mats, even on the ground under solar radiation and exposed to insects, animals, wind or dust. In order to improve drying and hygiene conditions, several solar dryers have been invented but do not have a storage system that can continue drying after sunset. It is in this sense of solving this problem that we set out to design a solar dryer with energy storage.
