One of the alternatives to maintain the life cycle of agricultural products while conserving their nutrients is the drying or dehydration process and to achieve these processes there are various technologies such as; drying by natural and forced convection, by solar energy, by electrical energy and even by thermal energy with fossil sources; However, the most attractive and sustainable is solar energy drying. The limitation of this process is when solar radiation ceases, that is, at night or in winter, generating low drying efficiency. To fill this gap today, there are thermal energy storage technologies, which act as heat emitters in times of absence of solar radiation. Thus, the purpose of the research is to evaluate four forms of heat storage in solid materials, specifically flat black river and quarry stones in sizes of ½” and 2.5” in diameter; in order to know the time and temperature provided by each system. To meet this objective, other studies have been used to expand the knowledge inherent in sensible heat storage and its application in the drying process. For the test, four models have been configured; one for ½” river stone (M1), one for 2.5” river stone (M2), one for ½” quarry stone (M3) and one for 2.5” quarry stone (M4), in each Of them, the storage time and temperature have been evaluated. As a result, it is shown.
