Optimizing solar drying efficiency: Effects of PCM, and IR on energy and exergy performance.
This study investigates the drying behavior of potatoes using a hybrid solar dryer equipped with a Compound Parabolic Concentrator (CPC) collector, Phase Change Materials (PCM), and Infrared Radiation (IR). Drying experiments were conducted at 40°C, 50°C, and 60°C under different PCM and IR configur...
