Thermal Conductivity Analysis of Solar Drum Dryer Machine as a Drying Machine for Corn Seeds

Abstract

Drum dryers are an important component in the agro-industry, particularly in corn processing. These dryers are designed to dry materials at high temperatures, utilizing a mechanical motor system that opens and closes the exhaust valve to control and stabilize the heat inside the rotisserie. This research employed a mixed-method approach, as well as direct observation. The results of this corn drying machine study revealed a deviceequipped with an inlet and outlet. The inlet is a funnel, and the outlet is a hole under the drum. This device is very economical for drying corn
