Technology
SCD is the first solar dryer that uses all the modes of heat transfer together (conduction, convection and radiation) giving one of the best drying efficiency of 22%
Principle
Heat supply by conduction v/s convection
Convection Dryer: Air for mass transfer only, heat supply by conduction and radiation
Conduction Dryer: for heat transfer and mass transfer
Outcome
Air requirement drops by 10X, thus no need of fans or blowers, eliminating need of electricity.
