- •
Performance of the sensible heat storage based indirect solar dryer was studied for drying bitter gourd slices.
- •
The thin layer drying behaviour explained with drying models for the indirect solar dryer and under open sun drying.
- •
Probably, first time, the drying models were reported for bitter gourd drying in the indirect solar dryer.
