  • Energy Transformation
CONT

The simple spreading of the material on the ground for direct exposure to sunshine has been practised for ages and involves no special equipment. Solar drying may also be indirect, by solar heating and circulation of air, in which case it becomes similar to space heating but less demanding with regard to temperatures and heat storage.

OBS

The term "sun-drying" does not seem to have the technical connotation of "solar drying".
