IOT BASED SOLAR DRYER

Mechanical Engineering

Solar dryer are widely used for drying fruits, vegetable, fish, coffee and agriculture product for both domestic as well as industrial purpose. In this research, performance of evacuated solar collector using adjustable reflection sheet with fully covered so that heat loss through convection are minimize has been examine. It has been found that temperature of water increases by 5 degree when the whole setup is covered with transparent cover and the peak temperature achieved with the single evacuated solar collector is 47 o C. for the above study the setup is constructed in LNCT BHOPAL campus to take multiple readings to find desired result. With the help of this data a arduino app programing in matlab is created with the help of this the whole mechanical work is converted into software work and the water temperature is observed at each point of time there is no need to take further reading with arduino app approach and finally this data is needs to validated with the original data.
