Natural and forced air convection operation in a direct solar dryer assisted by photovoltaic module for drying of green onion

•A direct solar dryer self-sufficient in energy was developed with PV module.•Drying kinetics of green onions under natural and forced convection were evaluated.•The drying air convection controlled the constant rate period.•Colorimetic analysis were performed on green onions after solar drying.•The...
