Mathematical modelling and validation of the thermal buoyancy characteristics of a mixed mode natural convection solar crop dryer with back up heater

This paper presents the modelling and subsequent validation of the thermal buoyancy characteristics for an experimental mixed-mode natural convection solar crop dryer (MNCSCDBH) for three plenum inlet opening to vent outlet opening ratios of 1:1, 1:1.3 and 1:1.5 selected for the purpose of this stud...
