Rotary solar dryer developed and evaluated for Kokam drying. Kokam fruits were selected as drying material. Time required reducing the moisture content upto 10 % as a safe storage for solar dryer was observed for ripen and unripe kokam fruits. Evaluation parameters were collection efficiency, system drying efficiency, pick-up efficiency, moisture ratio and drying rate. Maximum temperature inside the foldable solar dryer was 570C whereas maximum ambient temperature observed was 35.30C and solar irradiation was 600 W/m2.Humidity varies from 32.2% to 22.3% inside the solar dryer whereas outside humidity varies from 43.02% to 29.35%. Overall collection efficiency was found as 70.97 %. Maximum drying efficiency for salted ripen kokum was 9.88 per cent and unsalted salted ripen kokum was 7.66 percent.
