| Summary: | The Solar Powered Seed Dryer is new and innovative technology basing on blending Solar Thermal and Solar Photovoltaic Technologies. In our project the solar panel is used to convert the light energy to electrical energy by photovoltaic method. The machine, solar seed dryer, we introduce through our project is mainly useful for drying seeds, fruits and wherever moisture contents. In our project, the solar seed dryer consists of four main parts such as solar panel, battery, heating element and blower. The blower is used to passing the hot air to the required place, so that the moisture contents in the place was removed. The size of our project is also portable. So, we can move the ground dryer to any place very easily. Also, an auto tracking system is introduced in our project so that the solar panel tracks the sunlight and changes its direction automatically. This is helpful throughout the day. The sunlight can be made to fall on the solar panel all the time. |
