Book excerpt: Excerpt from Comparison of Concurrent-Flow, Crossflow, and Counterflow Grain Drying Methods Heated-air grain dryers are used on many farms and at most grain elevators in the Midwest. Field shelling of corn places a heavy seasonal load on these drying systems because most of this com has to be dried before it is acceptable for market or storage. Many attempts have been made to speed up grain drying processes. Grain dryer capacity can be increased by using higher drying air temperatures, but the quality of the dried grain is generally lowered.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Handbook of Farm, Dairy and Food Machinery Engineering is the essential reference for engineers who need to understand those aspects of the food industry from farm machinery to food storage facilities to the machinery that processes and packages our foods. The process of getting food from "farm to fork," as the saying goes, involves more than planting, harvesting, shipping, processing, packaging and distributing—though those are all key components. Effective and efficient food delivery systems are built around processes that maximize the effort while minimizing cost, time, and resource depletion. This comprehensive reference is for engineers who design and build machinery and processing equipment, shipping containers, and packaging and storage equipment. It includes cutting-edge coverage of microwave vacuum application in grain processing, cacao processing, fruit and vegetable processing, ohmic heating of meat, facility design, closures for glass containers, double seaming, and much more. Provides cross-topic information for translational research and potential application Focuses on design and controls – written for engineers by engineers – always with practical applications in mind Includes design of machinery and facilities as well as theoretical basis for determining and predicting behavior of foods as they are handled and processed

Download or read book Computer Applications in Agricultural Environments written by J.A. Clark and published by Butterworth-Heinemann. This book was released on 2016-01-22 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computer Applications in Agricultural Environments talks about the influence of computers on the industry of agriculture. The text explains how computers help to simplify calculations and other duties related to the field. The book's 21 chapters revolve around the relationship of computers, agriculture, and the environment. The majority of the chapters talks about the different simulation controls that the computer can do. Controls include climate control, greenhouse control, greenhouse climate feedback/feed-forward control (GCFFC) control, glasshouse control, crop drying control, sulfur dioxide control, retort control, animal control, broiler-house ventilation control, and poultry-house control. Other topics related to computers and agriculture are also discussed, such as monitoring rainfall interception, grain drying, monitoring techniques for ammonia, and various techniques for remote monitoring. The text covers a wide range of topics in the mentioned fields, and can therefore serve as an excellent reference for students or professors in the field of agriculture.

Book excerpt: Rice is one of the principal cereals used by the world's inhabitants. The hope for improved nourishment of the world's population depends on the development of better rice varieties and improved methods for rice production and utilization. During the past four decades, interest in rice research and production has increased in many countries. The development of new and better varieties by the International Rice Research Institute in the Philippines and other rice research institutes has stimulated numerous research stations to test the performance of these varieties in many countries under different climates, soil properties, cultural practices, and environmental conditions. The methods of harvesting, handling, drying, and milling rough rice have improved as a result of research efforts by the engineers and the rice milling industries. The first edition of Rice: Production and Utilization was published in 1980. This second edition presents the recent developments and progress made by the researchers, the industries, and various experiment stations. Because of the large amounts of literature available in recent years on rice production and utilization, this edition is divided into two volumes, Volume 1: Production and Volume II: Utilization. It is hoped that the books will be useful to rice researchers, processors, and people interested in rice production and utilization. Those studying v vi PREFACE the agronomy of rice plants, especially the genetics, breeding, cultivation, diseases, and insects that attack both the rice plant and the stored grain, will find this edition helpful in their search for new knowledge.

Download or read book Predicted Performances and Optimal Designs of Convection Grain Dryers written by T. L. Thompson and published by . This book was released on 1967 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mathematical drying models were formulated to predict the performance of the three basic convection grain dryer designs. Energy and equilibrium relationships from the literature and the results from experimental investigations were used as building blocks for the development of the models. Simultion of the movement of thin layers of grain in conveention grain dryers led to evaluations of the performance of crossflow, concurrent flow, and conterflow grain dryers. In a crossflow dryer the drying air flows perpendicular to the flow of grain, where as in concurrent and counterflow dryers the drying air flows in the same direction as and conterflow dryers the drying and air flows in the same direction as and in the opposite direction to the flow of grain, respectively. The performance characteristics of the three dryer desingns were found to be significantly different. Crosflow dryers overdried the grain on the air input side and underdried it on the exhaust air side. The concurrent flow process removed most of the moisture during the initial stages of drying and then bad a built-in tempering period to relieve some of the drying stress. Counterflow grain dryers have a higher moisture removal rate per foot of bed depth than either of the other two drying methods operating with the same drying conditions. (...).
