Description: Field and laboratory tests were conducted on fans and air distribution systems used for moving unheated air through grain. Performance characteristics of more than 100 fans were determined, and several multiple fan configurations were also tested. Four fan transitions and numerous perforated flooring materials were tested to determine their resistance to airflow. The airflow resistance of wheat, barley, sunflowers, canola, corn and flax was determined in typical farm grain bins. The resistance of partially perforated floors and the effect of grain spreaders was investigated. A hopper bottom bin aeration system was designed and tested.

Keywords: evaluation of grain airflow resistance characteristics and air delivery systems
