The intervention of engineering properties the seeds has an important role in design pneumatic seeder for seeding plug trays.The present study was carried out to find different physical like seed size (length and width), shape, thousand weight, bulk density terminal velocity (aerodynamic property) cabbage (Brassica oleracea) tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) at moisture content 8.24% (wb) 9.71% , respectively.The measured by analysing with 'Adobe Photoshop CS4' package acquiring digital...
The present study was conducted to optimize the mouth piece diameter and suction pressure of plug tray seeding mechanism pneumatic seeder for cabbage seeding. consisted a pipe with hypodermic needles as seed picking units, cut-off device supplying/cutting suction, regulating assembly consisting vacuum gauge control valve, unit. unit connected by flexible easy operation. responses namely, per cent miss, multiple, single, output, damage were determined in laboratory different levels mouthpiece...
Modified atmosphere storage (MAS) system was developed under passive as well active conditions for bulk handling and of mango. The mathematical model used in the design process validated found to be appropriate, indicated by moduli (E < 10%). use O2 absorber MAS has extended shelf life mango 3.5 times compared control along with maintaining good quality attributes at end period ambient temperature (27°C). It may due attainment an early dynamic equilibrium CO2 concentrations which were much...
