Many agricultural products such as grains, spices, fruits and vegetables are dried directly under the open sun and it has many restrictions such by way of rain, puffing wind, beetle swarm, animal meddling etc. which leads to contamination of the products. Thus, there is a need to make the solar dryers more efficient and cheaper. In this research the solar panel is used to convert the light energy to electrical energy for blower supply and flat plate collector is used to heat the air. Solar dryer consists of main parts such as flat plate collector, cabin, blower, battery, solar panel, infrared LED and PCM as energy storing material. The design consideration is, the initial moisture content is about 89.4% and final moisture content after drying will be about 10%. Infrared radiation can be used for drying purpose, this method is unique and different from conventional drying. Using above consideration designing solar dryer to convert 50kg of grapes into raisins. This project which also useful for drying foods, fruits and wherever moisture content is present. The objective of this project is to design, develop and construct the solar dryer system, to reduce the drying time from 15 days to 26-28 hours and to increase the productivity. The analysis of results is done using HTML Code for calculation of drying time of different agricultural products with a capacity of 30 kg and 50 kg. Also, results are compared with agricultural products with time requirement. As per analysis results shown the maximum time required for grapes, less drying time required for carrot and intermediate time required for onion in between chilli and banana for 30 kg and 50 kg capacity.
