Mango solar dryer prototype design with temperature and humidity control systemwith bluetooth monitoring
Mango is a fruit that is produced in the southeast of Mexico. To preserve the product, it is necessary to keep it refrigerated and this increases the sales price due to the high electricity consumption. An alternative to taking advantage of this fruit is to dehydrate the pulp, taking advantage of This way the product is not wasted. There are solar dryers where the fruits do not require electrical energy and their conservation is at a very low cost. In this document, the implementation of a project to dry the mango fruit taking advantage of solar energy is presented with evidence so that its temperature and humidity can be monitored via Bluetooth. For this purpose, sensors were adapted with the support of hardware and software. used an Arduino uno board. In the end it is shown that the project has been functional, being an alternative in reducing costs, drying and efficiency.
