drying at different temperatures, air velocities, drying time and
mass of fish in dryer, reporting that at 0.3 m/s, 6 h and 15 min
and 50 kg a good quality product is achieved, providing that
the average solar flux is about 700 W/m2 and the ambient temperature
outside the dryer about 40 C. Jain (2006) evaluated
the convective heat and mass transfer coefficient for chelwa
fish under solar drying and developed a mathematical model
for predicting the drying parameters.
