Technical Performance of an Inflatable Solar Dryer for Drying Amaranth Leaves in Kenya
The technical performance of an inflatable solar dryer (ISD) to dry amaranth leaves (<i>Amaranthus</i> spp.) was investigated. To handle the drying of lightweight materials, modification was made by adding an air deflector and trays inside the ISD. Computational performance of the ISD so...
