Abstract
The design details and performance of a low-cost solar dryer which can be used for dehydrating 10–15 kg fruit and vegetables are described in this paper. Field tests indicated that by the use of a solar dryer, the drying time for chillies can be reduced to nearly half of that by the open drying method.
