Abstract

Separation of particles in a horizontal air stream is examined and the effect of air velocity and feed rate is discussed. Cleaning and grading of grains are reviewed and a method is proposed for examining the feasibility of achieving a separation based on the suspension velocity of the particles. A method for increasing the effectiveness of discriminating between particles, based on the paths of grain and threshed crop material in an air stream is studied. Theoretical and experimental results for the horizontal drift of particles were compared.
