Abstract:

A Multi-Purpose Solar Food Processor (MCSFP) was developed to carryout both cooking and drying operations simultaneously.  MCSFP was tested in three different modes of operations ie., for fenugreek leaves drying (M1) and for cooking of rice separately (M2) and drying of fenugreek and cooking of rice together(M3). The maximum temperature difference attained between ambient air and MCSFP dryer and cooker was 23°C and 36.5°C respectively. The temperatures attained are well suited for drying of fenugreek leaves and cooking rice.
