Abstract
A mathematical model for simulating the behaviour of a solar crop drye r in forced convection is presented. Then, this model is validated by comparing the obtained results with the experimental ones. Also, we pr esent the influence of some parameters over the behaviour. Finally, we give the optimal values for the parameters to give the best possible behaviour.
