“FACTS FORFARMERS sis arene ,

Engineering Specialist P.E.I. Dept. Of Agriculture

Aeration of grain in storage, as a method of preserving its quality and value has a place on every.farm where grain is grown. It is a versatile and in- expensive process ..that offers valuable insurance to the farm- er against the hazzards of. grain heating and moulding and insect attack.

AERATION PROCESS

The aeration process consists of moving natural, unheated air through the grain at a relative- ly slow rate, but fast enough to

=provideone--to-five complete:

changes of air in the storage er hour. The principal purposes of

aeration are to cool the grain |

and to prevent the accumula-

tion of moisture that often

occurs at the top of an unventil- a

ated storage. Sat

AERATION AND DRYING

Aeration is not a method of drying, and an aeration system cannot be relied upon to save a crop that is more than two per- cent above the safe moisture content for permanent storage. Therefore a clear distinction should be made hetween aera- tion and drying. Small grainx are usually harvested in P.E_I. at a moisture -content that Is fairly close to the safe torage limit, an- an aeration system will usually keep them in good condition.

If a grower produces a large amount of grain, a drier of the bin type using supplementary heat wil! be justified in addition .to the aeration: system.

MOISTURE MIGRATION °

When grain is placed in stor- age in late summer, it is usual- ly quite warm. The grain around the walls cools slowly while the centre of the bin remains warm. The heavier cold air near fhe walls coes downward forcing an upward circulation of warm moist air toward the cool sur- face lavers and it can condense there If it is allowed to contin- ue for a few months the surface layers. of the grain may become moldiy and crusted

METHODS OF .AERATION

In the usual aeration system, air is drawn doMinward through the grain and is discharged di- rectly to the outdoors. This me thod prevents the condensation of moisture on the bin, ceiling which can oceur. if the direction of air... movementis-upward However the direction of air movement is not important if the rate of air flow is. high

With an aeration svsiem. the operator has some choice of the temperature he will store the grain. By aerating at low tem- peratures, the whole mass of grain can be taken down to. 3% or 40 degrees F where the artion of molds. bacteria and insects is very low even ff the moisture

content of the\grain is slightly

above the normal. safe storage level. \ ‘ '

AERATION EQUIPMENT P.EI. farmers who are aerat- ing their grain. bins are gener- ally using ‘a purchased aerator consisting of a long tube with air inlets in the lower one-half of \it and. a: small motor driven fan ‘on. the- uppers-end.«-These units can remove local hot spots in

ithe grain bin. They are not as ef- installed:

\fective as a properly laeration system because the in-

‘et area” is severely—restricted

iand because the air flow is not luniform throughout the bin.

The proper aeration system |would consist of main duct having a crosssectional area of twice the area of the fan opening and the side ducts may be reduc- jed in proportion. The tota! open ‘area of the ducts should be’ 20 jtimes,as large as the far’ open- jing. If it is not, the velocity in ithe grain must increase greatly as the air approaches the duct jand the pressure that is requir- ed to produce this is more than the fan can provide. It is recom- mended that the: air velocity in the main euct never be more jthan 1,000 feet per minute

| The rate of air flow may be as low as 1-50 cubic feet per minute per bushel of grain for the least critical applications or as high as 1-19 ¢.f.m. per bushel for

more rapid arid positive action |

\a figure of 1-25 c.f.m. per bushel jwould be suitable for the aver- age farm installation. | Grains stored to a depth of 10 feet will _have a static pressure (resistance to air flow measur- ed_in_inches_of-water) of .75 of an inch while grain stored 20 feet: deep will have a. static pressure of one inch of water. These figures will have to be used when selecting vour fan and motor

Suppose we have a'19 foot high bin to. aerate containing 2.500 bushels using 1-25 ¢.f.m. per bu- shel we would require a an that would deliver 100 ¢.f.m. at

4%" static pressure. Buy your }

fan from a reliable fan dealer. | The fan and motor should . be

carefully screened to protect the curious or forgetful hand that might enter the blades.

This same screen will keep ro- dents out of the duct system. The ducts themselves should be removeable for. cleaning. ay OPERATING THE” ESCH AERATION SYSTEM

Aeration should be started as soon as the bin 8s one-half full and should be continued-steadily for two or three days Depending on the weather..the aeratormay he operated only when the air is 1N tn 15, degrees below the tem- perature of the grain. If the moisture content of the grain is high. above 14 per cent) the aerator should run eontinuously
