Section 6: Agricultural Process Engineering

Engineering Properties of Agriculture Produce

Subtopic: Physical properties

Question Statement:

Which of the following properties are considered aerodynamic properties of agricultural seeds?

Options:

  • (A) Terminal velocity ($V_t$)
  • (B) Drag coefficient ($C_d$)
  • (C) Projected frontal area
  • (D) Modulus of elasticity ($E$)

Answer Key:

A, B, C

Step-by-Step Solution & Explanation

Aerodynamic properties govern the behavior of particles in air streams (pneumatic conveyance, winnowing, air-screen cleaners). Key properties include terminal velocity, drag coefficient, and projected area perpendicular to air flow. Modulus of elasticity is a mechanical/rheological property.
