This document provides an introduction to the properties of food grains that are important for designing machines used in harvesting, separating, cleaning, handling and storing agricultural materials. It discusses how size, shape, bulk density, true density and porosity can be useful for sizing equipment and facilities or affecting drying processes. The objective of the laboratory exercise was to determine the relationship between the angle of repose and bulk density to the moisture content of rice and wheat.

Knowledge about physical and aerodynamic properties of agricultural products are
needed in design and adjustment of machines used during harvesting, separating, cleaning, handling and storing of agricultural materials and convert them into food, feed or fodder. The properties which are useful during design must be known and these properties must be known and these properties must be determined at laboratory conditions (Gursoy, S., Guzel, E., 2010). The size and shape are, for instance, important in their electrostatic separation from undesirable materials and in the development of sizing and grading machinery. Bulk density, true density, and porosity (the ratio of intergranular space to the total space occupied by the grain) can be useful in sizing grain hoppers and storage facilities; they can also affect the rate of heat and mass transfer of moisture during aeration and drying processes; Density is used to separate materials with different densities or specific gravities. Separation of properly matured peas can be separated from the immature and infected ones by water flotation methods. Grain bed with low porosity will have greater resistance to water vapor escape during the drying process, which may lead to higher power to drive the aeration fans (Kumar, P., 2008). The objective of this exercise was to determine the relationship between the angle of repose and bulk density to the moisture content of rice and wheat.
