Abstract

The results of spices in Indonesia are very abundant. Its use is also very much like for cooking, cosmetics, medicine, and so on. To maintain the quality and quality of spices are usually stored in dry form. For this reason, equipment is needed in the drying process. This study aims to investigate the use of the dehumidification process and the heat of the refrigeration system condenser for the drying process of spices. Several performance measurements want to be studied, namely; energy consumption, system performance, and refrigeration system performance. This research was conducted using an experimental method whose implementation includes several stages, namely; design and manufacture of experimental equipment, calibration, and installation of measuring instruments, retrieval of experimental data, data processing, and analysis of results. Data processing is carried out using thermodynamic methods to obtain the desired quantities such as; system energy consumption, system performance, and effect on the refrigeration system. The results showed that the developed heat pump drying system could function properly. Thus it can be concluded that the closed cycle heat pump drying system can be used effectively to dry spices.
