The article reports the findings of an experiment conducted in Lithuania to ascertain the feasibility of intensifying the drying of agricultural produce by using a unified, module-designed, mobile solar collector and heat accumulator. The design of the solar collector is simple and cheap. The average heat capacity is approx equal to 197W/m2, it can raise the environmental air temperature up to 9 deg C by an air flow of 70m3/(m2h) capacity. The excess of heat energy generated in the solar collector is accumulated in the volume of a solid substance and is used for the drying of agricultural produce during the night. Heat capacity utilization potential of some substances and the
dynamics of temperature variation of a substance are also considered.
