| Abstract: Information on physical properties of broiler chickens diets is not available in literatures and such information is important for design and construction of poultry equipments. Some physical properties of starter, grower and finisher diet of broiler chickens, namely: gravimetrical (bulk density, true density and porosity) and frictional properties (coefficient of friction filling angle of repose, empting angle of repose and pouring angle of repose) were studied. Effect of height of falling diets to the containers at 150, 250 and 350 mm and volume of the containers at 500, 600, 1,100 and 2,000 mL on bulk density and porosity of diets were studied. Results indicated that true density of the starter; grower and finisher diets were 1,442.574,... |

| Abstract: Dekoko is a cool season legume plant grown in northern Africa. It is a rich source of protein for people in the region. The effect of moisture on some of the physical properties of dekoko seed was studied because it frequently affects some important parameters for the design of mechanical unit operations. The moisture content of dekoko seed was determined according to ASAE standards S352.3 and all other physical properties following standard procedure described elsewhere. The length, width, thickness, geometric mean diameter, thousand seed mass, porosity, true density and angle of repose increased from 5.60 to 6.51 mm, 4.99 to 5.78 mm, 4.60 to 5.44 mm, 5.05 to 5.89 mm, 94.08 to 126.10 g, 39.36 to 48.14%, 1361.66 to 1470.77 kg/m3 and 29.89° to... |
