Kajian Eksperimental Pengaruh Variasi Kecepatan Udara Panas Terhadap Proses Pengeringan Gabah
Abstract: This study focused
on the manufacture of grain drying equipment was needed by farmers. Much
research has been done by previous researchers about how to drain the rice in a
relatively short time. And already there are many methods and tools of research
that has been done including changing the form of construction, replacing the
material in order to produce a good quality grain drying. In this paper, the
authors conducted a study on how to make grain dryers and do research drying
system. This research looks at how adaptable it’s in drying grain. The method I
use is the reset method by comparing the natural drying and drying device made.
Research using laboratory test equipment such as Airflow, digital scales and
thermometers. Test data taken (values drought grain) using measurement methods
directly on objects. Test data was analyzed using Microsoft Excel software. The
results of processing these data it is concluded that the optimum conditions
for drying grain with it’s that are made are in position 1, the air temperature
is 420C grain drying, grain flow rate 0.1 Lt / dt, hot air flow rate 0.68 m /
dt, grain drying value 1060 gr/lt.
