In this work, the recent advances in practical and theoretical studies on solar air heaters are
reviewed in detail. Solar air heaters have proven in previous years to be a good option for …

The heat transfer improvement by using CuO/water nanofluid (NF) in a wavy channel is
evaluated numerically using the turbulent two-phase mixture and the κ-ε models. The …

This paper investigates the performance of solar gas heaters that utilize an air gap between
the glass cover and the absorber, along with radiating gas. By using a participating fluid as …

The drying kinetics, energy, exergy, quality, and economic studies of a solar dryer with and
without energy storage have been conducted. The original configuration of a solar air …

This study investigates the performance of a solar air heater with scrap materials. No
absorber sheet was included in the system, just scrap aluminum cans and wire meshes …

Low temperature drying or withering is the first step in tea processing after the tea leaves are
harvested. The process of tea withering was conducted in a newly developed laboratory …

Limited access to potable water sources is turned to one of the basic human concerns today.
Therefore, solar desalination units as a cost-efficient solution have attracted more attention …

In the present analysis, a novel four-mode solar dryer was developed and tested for the
drying of Garcinia pedunculata. The four combinations considered were indirect-mode solar …

A novel solar-biomass powered hybrid drying system has been developed for studying the
drying kinetics, and quality of long coriander (Eryngium foetidum), a medicinal spice. The …

This study describes clam drying using various dryers (Open sun, solar tunnel dryer, solar-
LPG dryer, infrared dryer). The parameters like moisture content of clam after drying, drying …
