Abstract
A large scale forced convection solar drying system has been designed and fabricated, comprising an array of forty solar collectors and three drying cabinets with a blower. Such a system yields 300 kg of dry product of custard powder in a normal sunshine day. It is shown that such a system is feasible and has an ability to save large amounts of fuel. It keeps the product clean and it is dried in a shorter period than in open sun drying. It is found that forced convection solar drying systems are suitable in food and chemical industries where large scale drying is required.
