Developing a rating model for selection solar wood drying location

---

Solar energy is one of the free and clean sources of energy supply without any destructive influence on the
environment. Solar energy has been used in different forms for a long time. Concentrators of solar radiation can be
used to produce unlimited, clean and free energy and save fossil fuels considerably. One of important applications of
solar energy is to manufacture solar wood drying units. Iran has been located in an appropriate situation in the world
with respect to receiving solar energy. The aim of the present paper is to propose a multicriteria methodological
approach based on Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) useful for the “Determination of Effective Criteria on Site
Selection for Solar Wood Drying Units in Iran”. The methodological approach is divided in 3 steps. In first step
experts of kiln wood drying were interviewed for preliminary investigation. In the second step, hierarchy of criteria
was designed and weighing values of them were calculated by Analytic Hierarchy Process. Finally, in the third step,
model was used rating for prioritizing capable provinces. Results showed that Qom province, with average
temperature, has the highest priority as a criterion and alternative.

Keywords: Solar energy, wood drying, AHP, criteria, land use, forests.
