Reduced Model and Comparative Analysis of the Thermal Performance of Indirect Solar Dryer with and without PCM
A thermal model is proposed to analyze the performance of an indirect solar dryer (ISD) with latent heat storage using phase change material (PCM). The estimations are compared with experimental data presented in the scientific literature taken in real conditions. The validated thermal model is used...
