Behaviour of different moisture contents of Jatropha curcas L seeds under compression loading
Original language description
A study was conducted to investigate the behaviour of different moisture contents of Jatropha curcas L. seeds under compression loading. To obtain jatropha seeds of different moisture contents ranging from 1% (w.b) to 37% (w.b), the seeds were soaked inwater and kept in a refrigerator at 5oC for different number of days. Compression devices namely ZDM 50-2313/56/18, pressing vessel with diameter of 76 mm and a pressing plunger of height 90mm were used. The amount of seeds in the pressing vessel was measured 40mm with compression force of 98100N. The results from the experiment showed that increasing the moisture content of the jatropha seeds influenced the force-deformation characteristic curve, deformation energy, maximum deformation and unit volumeenergy. Whiles moisture contents 1%(w.b) and 10%(w.b) displayed normal force-deformation characteristic, moisture contents 32%(w.b) and 37%(w.b) showed wave-effect characteristic.
