Abstract :
The authors study a drying procedure for wood utilising a microwave source, a source of conventional heat and of solar insolation. They establish the polynomial relations between an adimensional parameter containing the system characteristics, the solar cover and the fraction of heat economics when part of the air leaves the dryer and is recycled across an auxiliary heat source
