Abstract
A substantial quantity of food grains deteriorates during storage after harvesting due to unawareness of the lm portance of crop drying, As high. as 20% losses have beer. N:· corded during sun drying and storage. To avoid such a big loss a grain dryer has been designed which can save dry ing and storage losses. Drying of grains by this dryer is easy and time saving. Moisture removed by this dryer is proportional to the initial temperature of heat transfer medium (sand). Moreover, moisture removal rate by this dryer is maximum at 6 0 sand to grain mass ratio.
