Etude du séchage convectif par l’énergie solaire des produits rouges

Abstract

Red products are part of the construction materials sector, Algeria produced essentially for the manufacture of bricks and 98% much lower amount, tiles and other products. This production through the drying step which requires energy. It is in this context that our work is to evaluate the performance of flat collectors for a possible use for the drying of these products. The implementation of such a solar system to satisfy that need definite must be done after the estimated productivity of the system as a function of local solar resource available really. Modeling of intrinsic and extrinsic parameters that govern the operation of collectors (temperature and radiation) is an essential step. Tests on drying gave acceptable results, the last part of the work is reserved for the study to determine the role statistical temperature and time on the humidity, the change of the mass and the variation in density.
