Abstract

This study is representing on enhancement of the new drying application process. Mostly original conventional drying application using electricity to generate heat. Use of electricity will give an effect on energy consumption. The original drying application take more time to dry the clothes, it waste time. In this study, some targets have been set to ensure that the current study is not diverging from the original target. The main study for the current project is, to accelerate the drying rate and save time by using some insulation and also to check the amount of heat provided inside the drying cabinet in case of covering heat source. The design of metallic cupboard is important to achieve the objectives of the current study and this project ends with experimental work. This metallic cupboard is constructed based on actual size of cupboard that is available in the market. The dimension of the metallic cupboard is 2 m (H) × 1 m (L) × 0.5 m (W), and also has some air flow hole to provide air flow inside the metallic cupboard. The most important parameter to measure inside the insulated cupboard is temperature, and need to consider the level of the temperature that provide the highest temperature inside the insulated cupboard. The highest temperature inside the insulated cupboard is on level one and level two where its equal to 1.2 m and 1.5 m with highest temperature is 62.1°C and 62.3°C. Second objective on this experiment when using grill as cover at heat source area, the highest temperature inside the cupboard at level three and level one give the highest temperature is 60.8°C and 61.4°C. Use of the insulation to accelerate drying rate inside the metallic cupboard is achieve. The current project is ready to contribute to the user for a drying purpose with several benefits such as time consuming for drying clothes is shorts, save cost in a long term period by using drying cupboard, also by using the drying cupboard the clothes can wearable after drying process complete.
