In this research, energy and exergy loss were analyzed in the laboratory for the drying of eggplant using a fluidized bed dryer. The drying experiment was conducted at inlet temperatures of 40, 50, and 60 and air velocities of 3, 5, and 7 m/s using samples with diameters of 5, 10, and 13 mm and a height of 1 cm. The effects of temperature, velocity of drying air, and sample size on energy consumption and exergy losses were investigated. The results showed that the minimum energy consumption and exergy losses occurred at a diameter of 13 mm, velocity of 3 m/s, and temperature of 40. Meanwhile, the maximum energy consumption and exergy losses occurred at diameter of 5 mm, velocity of 7 m/s and temperature of 60;. Generally, the results demonstrated that... |

In this study, the canola stalk cutting parameters including modulus of mass density of stalk, special work of useful cutting, coefficient of cutting useful work and crush resistance coefficient were examined. For the tests, testing machine Instron (Model Santam STM-5) with 50 N load cell was used. Cutting was performed with a saw-serrated cutting blade that was attached to the Instron movable jaw. Stems were cut at three diameter levels (1 to 3, 3 to 5 and more than 5 mm), three cutting speed levels (75, 115 and 150 mm/minute), three cutting angles (0°, 30° and 60°) and three replicates. Cutting parameters including modulus of mass density of stalk, special work of useful cutting, coefficient of cutting useful work and crush resistance coefficient... |

In this study, at first the shear parameters including the maximum shear force, shear strength, shear energy and power consumption of canola stem were calculated through force-deformation curve; and then these mechanical properties were determined and predicted using artificial neural network. For the tests, testing machine Instron (Model Santam STM-5) with 50 N load cell was used. Stems were cut at 3 diameter levels (1 to 3, 3 to 5 and more than 5 mm), 3 cutting speed levels (75, 115 and 150 mm/min ), 3 cutting angles (0°, 30° and 60°) and three replicates. Cutting parameters including maximum cutting force, shear strength; cutting energy; consumed power and cutting work were examined. Tests lasted for each stem until the full cut. Data... |
