摘要:
An experimental investigation was conducted on the performance of a solar box dryer for drying bamboo operating under tropical weather conditions. The dryer is a greenhouse-type designed for multi-crop solar drying. Air circulation was by electrically-operated fan. The results showed that the moisture content of the bamboo could be brought dovn to about 19% from an initial value of nearly 90% in 17 days by operating the dryer over 8 hours each day. under natural drying conditions, the final moisture content reached was only 22%. Although solar drying of bamboo was only marginally faster than natural drying. nonetheless. final moisture content was lower.
