An experimental evaluation of drying banana slices using a novel indirect solar dryer under variable conditions

Novel thermal characteristics of drying banana slices in an indirect dryer are presented for four different experimental drying conditions in the forced convection mode. The novel characteristics include measuring the airflow velocity in the drying chamber, measuring the thermal profiles in differen...
