Some physical and mechanical properties of the shell and kernel of dura and tenera varieties of oil palm in Nigeria were evaluated at moisture contents of 4.5 and 5.0% w.b. for dura shell and kernel and 4.5 and 5.0% for tenera shell and kernel respectively. The properties determined include linear dimensions, coefficient of friction on four structural surfaces and angle of repose. Results show that for the two varieties linear dimensions range from 0.52 ±0.26 - 17.63±3.69, coefficient of friction range from 0.59 - 0.85 on the four structural surfaces while the angle of repose range from 23.46 - 25.16o. These data are useful in the design of handling and processing equipment for palm kernel. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
