TL;DR: In this paper, double-pass solar air dryer (DPSAD) and infrared assisted double pass solar air drier were designed and tested and the effects of using infrared energy have been experimentally investigated to ensure continuity in climatic conditions where solar energy is insufficient.

TL;DR: Grape is one of the most popular fruits and various types of grape have been cultivated by more than 100 countries around the World as discussed by the authors and the wine and juice industry produces large quantities of by-producers.

TL;DR: In this article, the performance of a double pass solar air collector (DPSAC)-assisted drying system was analyzed and the drying kinetics of grape pomace was investigated.

TL;DR: In this article, a new type drying system was designed to decrease energy consumption of walnut drying and the effect of heat transfer mechanism and bi-directional penetration of the heat to the product were investigated according to energy-exergy analysis.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of heat transfer mechanism (natural and forced convection) and homogeneous drying on specific energy consumption, drying rate and drying time of grape pomace were investigated.
