Analisis Kalor pada Pengeringan Garam dengan Alat Pengering Garam Berkapasitas 25 Kg/Proses

This study aimed to analyze the heat in a salt dryer with a capacity of 25 kg/process. The material used in this research is coarse salt, which is salt that has cystic grains with a larger size but tastes the same as ordinary salt in general. It has a larger and coarser texture than the salt we usually use, which is fine salt. The analysis was carried out by considering changes in temperature and specific heat. The results of the salt drying test with a capacity of 25 kg/process obtained an average heat transfer of 765.08 Joules. The average heat capacity obtained from the salt drying test is 19.106 J/°K. The average shrinkage of the water content is 6.6% according to the SNI 3556-2016 standard, which is a maximum of 7%. The average yield in the salt drying test process is 93.3%.
