I think you could get a solar panel on the side cause your using the sun for heat.

@ben92282 Convection. Instead of fans, you could have a radiator type deal on the back that creates a cold zone. The temperature difference will create pressure difference which will create a natural airflow. However, this will also create condensation that you will have to deal with.
The air would heat up in the kiln and travel up. Vents in the top would have this flow back into the radiator where it would be cooled and it would drop down. This would push the air out vents in the bottom.

is the fan plugged in to the grid? is there any way to sufficiently circulate air without electricity?

Does anyone know how hot is too hot inside this kiln? and How fast is too fast to dry out some red oak or black walnut? My slabs of wood are cut to 1" My kiln is 4'x8' and I live on the central coast of California.

@milk5288d If you search the web for solar kiln information you’ll find many sources that can help you determine drying schedules and heat requirements. Check out the USDA Forest Service, which has publications available.
