Solar drying systems have progressed quite rapidly with their utilization, both in terms of technical and algorithmic. At first the drying system only paid attention to the achievable drying temperature, but along with advances in technology the drying system has been able to meet industrial needs, namely to produce drying products that are ready to be re-engineered into daily necessities. Utilization of artificial intelligent in the solar drying system is realized by using the SURAM's Fuzzy Rule has taken into account 8 parameters in the form of drying temperature, dryer humidity, ambient temperature, ambient humidity, solar energy, moisture content of the material being dried and wind speed according to the location of the solar drying process. Even in the industrial world, it comes to the type of material to be dried, such as coffee, chocolate, tea, tobacco, and wood. The process will take place by using an operational table in the form of a look up table on the actuator, namely how long the damper, sprayer and heater work according to the material drying schedule. © 2023 Author(s).
