AERODYNAMIC AND THERMAL PROPERTIES OF MELON (CITRULLUS LANATUS) SEEDS UNDER VARYING DRYING TEMPERATURE FOR SEPARATION FROM SHELLS AND PROCESSING

The effect of temperature on aerodynamic and thermal properties of melon seed is very important in the design of drying, processing and storage equipment. To this end, some thermal and aerodynamic properties of melon seed were investigated as a function of temperature. The thermal conductivity, spec...
