Performance assessment of passive indirect solar dryer comparing without and with heat storage unit by investigating the drying kinetics of carrot

The present study examined the drying kinetics of carrots and the effectiveness of passive indirect solar dryer without (setup-I) and with (setup-II) thermal energy storage (TES). A module containing paraffin wax as a TES unit was incorporated after the test was completed in setup-I to create setup-...
