To design a sunflower machine for removing seeds from sunflower head (SH) based on air-jet impingement, preliminarily model of such machine was designed, constructed and evaluated. Effects of the seed location, angle of impingement, distance between nozzle outlet and sunflower head, and rotational velocity of sunflower head on percentage of extracted seeds were examined. In order to examine the effects of air-jet parameters on percentage of removed seeds in different locations of seed on sunflower head, sunflower heads were divided into three regions, namely central region, middle region and side region. Results indicated that in all three regions, with increasing rotational velocity from 10 to 30 rev/min, percentages of removed seeds from the SH... |

Due to success of air-jet application in food and agricultural sciences, a new method was invented based on the impingement jets in order to eliminate a number of problems present in mechanical methods of removing sunflower seeds from the head. When the sunflower head had linear velocity and the nozzle was fixed, the effects of the seeds’ location on the sunflower head, reservoir pressure, nozzle diameter, linear velocity of the sunflower head, and the distance between the nozzle outlet and the surface of the sunflower head on its removed area were examined. The regions removed by the impingement of the air-jet were photographed and the area of the removed regions was calculated based on the image processing technique. The results showed that the area of... |

For 100 sunflower head, maximum and minimum diameters, thickness, height of the ground, and mass of all seeds on sunflower head (SH) for five conventional varieties were measured. To examine the correlation between maximum SH diameter and minimum SH diameter, SH thickness, SH height from the ground and SH seeds mass, linear regression method was used. Also SH diameter and SH thickness of four sunflower hybrids varieties were measured. Log-normal, Weibull and Generalized extreme value (G.E.V) distribution were used in order to model SH diameter and SH thickness distributions of all varieties and hybrids; also, Kolmogorov-Smirnov methods were used for comparison of all probability density. Results indicated that value of average of dimensions, geometric... |
