    Computer Aided Design and Fabrication of Garri Rotary Fryer with Brush Scrapping Device
    (International Journal of Engineering Trends and Technology (IJETT), 2018-08) Oladebeye, D.H.; Adefidipe, E.R.; Issa, W. A.
    A simple gari frying machine with brush scrapping device was done using Computer Aided Design (CAD), and then fabricated. The gari frying machine consists of a rotary shaft with paddles having brush scrappers at the tip. This system is inserted into a drum to fry sieved cassava mash with the aid of charcoal as the source of heat in the chamber is controlled by introducing heat exchangers. The paddle shaft is driven by a synchronous electric motor of 3.75kw with 1460rpm. As the shaft rotates, the paddle having a to and fro conveyor effect, turns the dewatered sieved cassava mash being fried. The total cost of production is N176, 095.

    Performance Evaluation of Garri Rotary Fryer with Brush Scrapping Device
    (International Journal of Engineering and Techniques, 2019-02) Oladebeye, D.H.; Issa, W. A.; Adefidipe, E. R.
    A gari rotary fryer with brush scrapping device designed using Computer Aided Design (CAD), and fabricated.The paddle shaft is driven by a synchronous electric motor of 3.75kw with 1460rpm. The turn out as being recorded from performance evaluation given at 3kg of cassava mash fried produced 2.7kg in 6minutes at an average temperature of 770C. After considering the mass before frying, mass of charcoal used for frying, moisture loss, mass of net gari fried, time for frying, moisture loss, mass of gari net gari fried, time for frying and rate of frying, the machine has an efficiency of 90%.
