Book excerpt: Drying grain, especially corn, with conventional artificial drying methods requires great quantities of petroleum fuel during a short harvest period. Two systems of drying are used: high-speed, high temperature batch or continuous-flow and low temperature in-storage drying. Solar energy was studied as an alternative or supplemental source of energy for low-temperature drying at several different Midwest locations.
