ABSTRACT Drying of lightly salted sardine (Sardinella aurita) was accomplished using three air temperatures (35°C, 40°C, 50°C) and velocities (0.5 m/s, 1.5 2 m/s); the effects drying conditions on kinetics were studied. As for all biological products, temperature is main factor influencing kinetics. However, over a given which seems to correspond protein modification (50°C), at high flow rate (2 m/s 2.5 m/s) crust formation surface fish, due combined effect heat salt observed. This...
The problem of temperature inversion is one solar origin principal problems about which the cultures under shelters complain.Indeed, for winter period, greenhouse very low at night and it rather high during day in summer.Consequently, heating greenhouses essential.In this work, we studied advisability using two exchangers coupled between them to manage thermal energy a greenhouse.The first system battery plaits with capillary tubes buried ground depth 70 cm.The second an air exchanger based...
This research work is focused on the construction of an accurate longwave/shortwave radiation model a tunnel greenhouse pseudo-bond graph model, widely used in Tunisia. includes sun position, useful incoming solar sky longwave inside and shortwave model. The key idea to use bond graphs allowing lumped modelling approach which suitable for control applications. Furthermore, evaluation some radiative components was made, noting that these are particularly sensitive regarding thermal behaviour...
A numerical study of the thermal stratification in a solar storage tank, validated with experiments is presented. The experimental has been carried out on three domestic hot water systems. Each system characterized by two parameters: aspect ratio tank and design factor. approach consists recording temperature profile within each during one working day under same real operating conditions. simulating an whole system. effects ratio, collector flow rate draw off time have investigated. Results...
Abstract Many aphids such as Myzus persicae are major agricultural pest against which sustainable solutions must be developed. In the present study, we evaluated role of Aphidius ervi ( Hymenoptera: Braconidae), an aphid parasitoid, to control M. in bell pepper cultures greenhouses. Parasitoids were released at one occasion a greenhouse and infested plants followed before after parasitoid introduction. We numbers parasitism rates two different controlled temperatures (22°C 25°C), measured...
Experiments on drying with radiation and convection under sun exposed ventilated shelters were carried out at the laboratory. These experiments done inside a blower, lamps simulating solar radiation. Some measurements kinetics of taken. Under effects radiation, temperature product becomes higher than that air convection. The evaporation water is essentially thermal vaporization. contributes indirectly to by increasing evaporating capacity air. However, velocity factor has little effect...
