  Analysis of Hybrid Photovoltaic Thermal (PV/T) Integrated Solar Dryer: An Experimental Validation

  By Trapti Varshney, Satya Sai Srikant, Sanjay Agrawal

  Abstract: In this study, a hybrid photovoltaic thermal (PV/T) integrated solar dryer has been designed, developed, and experimentally analyzed to evaluate its performance in real-world climatic conditions. The system incorporates a UV-stabilized sheet mixed-mode tent house structure, installed on the rooftop of a building located in Bhilai, Chhattisgarh, India. The dryer is equipped with a thermal collector directly connected to the drying chamber to enhance heat transfer efficiency. Experiments were conducted …
