BRAVO, Diego A; ACUNA, Wilber  y  PITO, Julio C. Prototype for temperature and humidity control in the mechanical drying of coffee. Ing. Desarro. [online]. 2022, vol.40, n.1, pp.28-46.  Epub 02-Sep-2022. ISSN 0122-3461.  https://doi.org/10.14482/inde.40.01.621.004.

This paper presents the development of a prototype for humidity and temperature control during coffee drying at the Institución Educativa Agropecuaria La Capilla (Cajibío - Cauca). The prototype was developed using electronic instrumentation and computer aided design. The designed control system allows for the drying process to be carried out automatically. A silo-type mechanical equipment was designed, with a total capacity for a 5 kg load, allowing for a reduction in the drying time as compared to manual drying.
