A simulation of optimum power requirements of selected grain threshers

A power requirement model was simulated at three factor interaction of process variables in order to select a combination of optimum crop and machine variables (crop moisture content, feed rate, cylinder speed) that will yield minimum grain losses for millet and sorghum threshers. The viability of t...
