GRAIN SIZE ANALYSIS TECHNIQUES IN AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTS
Journal Title: ISB-INMA TEH AGRICULTURAL AND MECHANICAL ENGINEERING - Year 2018, Vol 0, Issue 8
Abstract
Reduction of grain size in processing of grain products for food and feed purposes is the most important and energy consuming process. The performance of animals consuming mixed feeds of different grain sizes may vary. Therefore, grinding efficiency is an important parameter and the use of grain size analysis in terms of machine technique; is one of the main parameters in the comparison of the performances of grinding purposes and grinding activities. In this study, the most commonly used grain size analysis techniques (sieve analysis, microscopic (image processing) analysis, laser diffraction analysis, electrical resistance analysis and sedimentation analysis) were tried to be given comparatively.
