Abstract
In the production of the shrimp paste, usually, the sun drying processing is not done hygienically. A small and mobile solar dyer could be used by the entrepreneurs to improve its wholesomely. This study aims to evaluate the simulation data analysis of the temperature contours resulting from the mobile solar dryer using Finite Element Analysis (FEA). This study was conducted in two different sets of ambient parameters; the outside and inside of the laboratory environments. On the FEA part, SolidWorks Software was used to analyze the heat transfer process inside the 3D models of the mobile solar dryer. The result suggested that the mobile solar dryer was able to maintain an average temperature of 34.2 °C and 60 % relative humidity by only harnessing 180 Watts from 3 bulbs and a 75-Watt industrial exhaust fan.
