Abstract
In the present paper, a numerical modeling of solar dryer is doing. This solar dryer operates in the natural convection condition and his construction is not difficult because, local materials are used and it is not necessary to follow a particular formation. We have obtained a numerical solution which explains experimental solution. Application is doing on ebony wood that is a wood most difficult to dry and most utilized for the sculpture. With 30mm of thickness, the sample passed 25 days to reduce his water content to 15%, initial water content was equal to 27%, and the drying period is the month of March from the town of Yaoundé, political capital of Cameroon. This modeling proposed is a modest contribution to explain the solar drying of tropical woods at the laboratory scale
