ENERGY ANALYSIS AND OPTIMIZATION OF THIN LAYER DRYING CONDITIONS OF OKRA
This paper presents the energy analysis and optimization of thin layer convective hot air drying conditions of okra slices in a hybrid solar-electric crop dryer based on the specific energy consumption and drying duration using response surface methodology (RSM). Fresh sliced okra samples (Abelmosch...
