ANALISA EFISIENSI ROOFTOP SOLAR COPRA DRYER DENGAN SUSUNAN KOLEKTOR SECARA SERI
Abstract: Rooftop solar copra
dryer tool is an instrument used for drying copra with capacity ± 40 kg, for
one drying. The purpose of this research is to see how to efficiency drying in
a series connectivity on copra process of drying. Using the dryer solar can
exsiccate drain agricultural products. Where the work plase, sunlight absorbed
or strored through solar collectors, heat will come from the collector come
into a system of air flow to the piping system and forward to the drying.
Design tool dryer aims to exsiccate copra of the water is decreased from 52.68 %
until 5-6 %. Medium dryer is the heat produced by the capture of the sun and
distributed for ciblyin to the drying chamber they would be used for drying
copra. After doing research with the experimental method to directly observe
and measure the way things are done in the dryer and then do the processing and
evaluation of test data. From the results of tests and calculations, drying
wits series to get a final moisture content of the materiall is achieved after
25 hours of drying by using a tool maker Rooftop wits 5.97 %. Final moisture
content of the materiall is achieved after 25 hours of drying with direct
drying wits 24%. Rooftop solar copra dryer appliance is more Effective and
Efficient. Un contaminated by air environment (dust, sand, vermin and its
other).
