摘要
We present a numerical simulation of the functioning of a wood solar dryer in atmospheric conditions of Moroccan climate. A comparison of our numerical results with experimental measurements carried out on a wood solar dryer shows a good agreement. Results show that drying period is closely linked to glass partitions and timber thickness. The type of ventilation has no effect on the drying period (initial timber humidity lower than 40%). The substitution of east and west glass faces by concrete walls has practically no effect on drying period. (C) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
