*{{NewAug22}}'''August 2022: New solar dryer''' - [[Amirmehdi Komarizade]], living in Tehran, presents his latest construction, an [[:Category:Solar_food_drying#Updraft_solar_dryers|updraft style solar dryer]]. It takes advantage of natural convective currents to move air up through the dryer, taking the moist air up and out. The hot air created by the external collector enters from the upper part of the chamber, and after getting moisture of the product becomes heavy and cold. The second collector, which is inside the container helps the first collector, and has the role of a solar chimney for suction from the bottom of the chamber where the moisture of the product collects.

*'''December 2013:''' [[Engineers Without Borders - Iran]] (EWB-Iran) participated in "Research Week" (Dec. 14 - 20, 2013) at Fasa University, highlighting the importance of solar cookers. In this seminar they informed students and professors about the different types of solar cookers and their efficiency. The team included [[Soheil Salimi]] (Founder and Lecturer), Razieh Amini nezhad (Food Science and Technology student), Niloufar Nekueian (Mathematics student), and Fatemeh Rahimi (Mechanical engineering student). They tested two types of solar cookers. The [[Suntastic Panel Cooker]], which raised the internal temperature of an empty 4-liter black pot with a clear glass lid to 150° C (302° F) in about 30 minutes, and 3 liters of water heated from 26° C (79°F) to pasteurization point, 70°C (158°F), in about 50 minutes. They also tested the [[Dual-Setting Panel Cooker]] (DSPL), which has two different settings to better concentrate sunlight depending on the location of the sun in the sky.
