Determination of Some Physical Properties of Rapeseed
Özet
Rapeseeds (Brassica napus oleifera L.) were analyzed for some physical properties production in Kırklareli province. Also some physical properties of rapeseed such as seed moisture content, length, diameter, mass of single seed, thousand seed mass, geometric mean diameter, sphericity, seed volume, density, accumulation angle and friction coefficient have been determined. Kernel moisture, thousand kernel mass, plant length, plant stem diameter, yield of the harvested crop were determined as 8.34 %, 4.74 g, 158.2 cm, 8.10 mm, 3204 kg/ha, respectively. Length, diameter, mass of single kernel, geometric mean diameter, sphericity, bulk density, accumulation angle and friction coefficient were found as 2.35 mm, 1.93 mm, 0.0047g, 2.07 mm, 0.88, 5.07 mm3, 617 kg/m3, 290, 0.318 (on galvanized sheet), 0.288 (stainless steel), 0.305 (aluminium), respectively.
