Abstract

Onion is produce in large quantities at every harvest season in Nigeria and this is so in many part of the world, however storage of the crop has been a problem, thus, the need to study the thermal behavior of clay room for the storage of onion. In this work the transient heat transmission across various walls of an adobe room was determined using an Engineering Equation Solver (EES) software programme. It was found that the determined average hourly temperature has a root mean square of percentage deviation of 10.8238 and that of determined average relative humidity is 8.4158. Thus EES software could be use in forecasting the indoor condition of an adobe room.
