Abstract:This work aims to utilize the enormous solar energy potential in Jordan in drying agricultural products (Tomato).
This study presents a proposed model of the indirect solar dryer with an innovative design by adding mirrors,
a nozzle, and a fan to improve the tomato slices' drying process. The effect of these modifications has been
investigated. Interestingly, the solar system design reduced the moisture content in these agricultural products
to increase shelf life and improve its quality. Moreover, it can be c… Show more
