In this study, a novel solar dryer is presented and analyzed experimentally numerically. The proposed device small, passive, indirect that works in an unconventional way. product mainly heated by irradiation from the walls of drying chamber, while its moisture removed airflow caused natural convection. addition, it low-cost made readily available materials has variable geometry allows to increase thermal performance. Two types experimental tests were conducted analyze Thermal without load carried out assess suitability chamber temperatures. Load with various masses food evaluate results demonstrated achieved temperatures suitable for was able dry tested foods. Finally, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) model developed predict performance dryer. validation numerical data confirms their reliability accurately predicting within

This article compares the performance of four different types drying systems viz. solar cabinet dryer (SCD), greenhouse (GHD), fluidized bed (FBD) and conventional hot air (HAD) with respect to their impact on environment. The FBD exhibited superior heat & mass transfer shorter time. Drying in HAD, GHD, SCD took 330, 240 210 min respectively reduce moisture content from 6.69 kg/kg around 0.2 kg/kg. average rate was highest for at 1.8737 followed by 1.6288, GHD 1.1805 HAD 1.1748 (kg/kg-hr). had rates similar even though it solely dependent energy. total CO2 mitigation were 9.1 76.56 tons energy payback periods 1.5 2.31 years life cycle conversion efficiencies 29.18% 52.8%. While emitted 28.28 44.07 10 years.

In the present scenario, development of efficient lithium-ion energy storage system-based electric vehicles has been turned into focus as an effective alternative to conventional transportation systems. However, correspondingly associated potential risks thermal failure confirm need for management system mitigate adverse effects excessive heat generated during operation. This work takes opportunity a comparative performance assessment response surface method (RSM) and artificial neural networks (ANN)-based predictive models analyze behavior oscillating pipes (OHP) filled with binary working fluids (acetone-DI water, acetone-methanol, acetone-ethanol) mixing ratio (1:1 ≤ MR 2:1) volumetric filling (30%≤FR 70%) independent variables at different battery discharge rates (1C DR 2C). The is predicted in terms maximum cell temperature (MCT), average (ACT), uniformity (TD). acetone-DI water mixture was identified optimal fluid among evaluated. ACT, MCT, TD were determined be 38.3°C, 40°C, 3.4°C, respectively, under (FR) 70%, (MR) 2:1, rate (DR) 2C. prediction model measured using correlation coefficient ( R 2 ) value absolute error (APE) acknowledge best fit. results applicability both ANN -values ≥ 0.99998; APE 0.0162%) slightly more accurate relative corresponding RSM approach 0.9814; 0.2342%).

Abstract The world's population is projected to increase, impacting a 60% rise in food production demand by 2050, including the for maize. Currently, maize estimated reach 1510 million tons 2023, necessitating suitable methods preserving kernels maintain quality and reduce post‐harvest agricultural losses. Although drying present viable solution address this issue, majority of farmers Indonesia still use conventional methods, such as open sun drying, which has several drawbacks. Hence, solar systems aim overcome these limitations harnessing renewable, clean, sustainable, eco‐friendly energy support sustainable development goals (SDGs). This research comprehensively reviews progress technology, providing insights into its working principles, innovative designs, operational modes across various types dryers. 4E + Q analysis provides information regarding performance systems, determine quantity utilized exergy demonstrate irreversibility thermodynamic processes. Additionally, highlights environmental impacts CO 2 emissions mitigation efforts, while considering economic aspects through lifecycle assessment payback period methods. dried according standards set Indonesian National Standard (SNI) conducted, proximate analysis, aflatoxin levels, color measurements, internal cracking analysis. Practical applications Drying technology essential preservation process, enabling maintenance product extending storage life reducing moisture content eliminate activities microbial agents. application harnesses radiation primary source, making it well‐suited crops like paddy, maize, cassava, etc. dryers continues modifications addition auxiliary achieve more efficient, economical, technologies. hope that future, technologies can be adopted on an industrial scale due low costs, ease operation, controllable operating conditions. methodological approach necessary evaluate products consumption, flow, considerations, aspects, assessments against national (SNI).
