Description

TITLE: A PORTABLE SOLAR DOME DEHYDRATOR
FIELD OF INVENTION
The invention relates to a portable solar dome dehydration for drying organic and inorganic material especially agricultural product.
BACKGROUND OF INVENTION
Solar dryers developed so far are generally designed without orientation and ignoring annual sun path of the location. Solar dryers or dehydrators in prior art are designed in such a way that they don’t track the sun at sun peak hours and become inefficient in obtaining energy. Single axis tracking or dual axis tracking is not befitting and this invention suffice this need with its dome design as tracking mechanism is not a cost effective solution. Idle tilt in prior art can get maximum energy at one solstice missing the equinox and solstice at the other end. The sun rays should enter the dryer without reflecting or absorbing and so the media enclosure should be perpendicular to the rays and idle still tilt in prior art has no means to keep the enclosure or cover perpendicular to the rays as per the annual sun path. Solar dryers or dehydrators designed in prior art have never presented orientation of the equipment which is of great value in harnessing solar energy. Product drying specifications include drying characteristics specifying required drying temperature and solution for controlling temperature surge is not seen in prior art. Heat transfer mode of conduction, convection and radiation together or assorted seen in prior art do not suffice the wet load requirement of marginal farmers and heat generated or radiated on drying surface possess risk of dry fry with certain minerals along with vitamin B and C leaching out into boiling water. Spectral assortment is not mentioned in prior art to attain the expected results and media for moisture removal for the drying equipment is not discussed in prior art. Radiation referred in prior art is photo synthetic active radiation which is in visible light spectrum range of 380-700 nm. It is true that this spectrum range contain certain amount of energy as photons and light can transfer it to object producing temperature but prior art has not used the efficient near infrared spectral source for harnessing heat from solar energy which can be used in solar dryers and dehydrators. Near infrared radiation is heat source and can be directly applied to product to be dried which is disclosed here. Product to be dried is kept on tilted surface at one idle angle which can be perpendicular to solar radiation at one solstice or equinox in prior art and the design of existing solar dryers don’t synchronise with this drying surface to get maximum yield.56 % of solar energy coming to the earth’s surface is in the form of infrared which is directly heat source and solar dryers and dehydrators in prior art have not mention use and method of using this source.
The present invention is portable and easy to handle. The present invention is more efficient and economical for drying agriculture products & useful for marginal farmers as wet load capacity of this solar dome dehydrator can extend in tonnage.
