1、 ANSI/ASAE D241.4 OCT1992 (R2012) Density, Specific Gravity, and Mass-Moisture Relationships of Grain for Storage American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers ASABE is a professional and technical organization, of members worldwide, who are dedicated to advancement of engineering applic

2、able to agricultural, food, and biological systems. ASABE Standards are consensus documents developed and adopted by the American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers to meet standardization needs within the scope of the Society; principally agricultural field equipment, farmstead equipm

3、ent, structures, soil and water resource management, turf and landscape equipment, forest engineering, food and process engineering, electric power applications, plant and animal environment, and waste management. NOTE: ASABE Standards, Engineering Practices, and Data are informational and advisory

4、only. Their use by anyone engaged in industry or trade is entirely voluntary. The ASABE assumes no responsibility for results attributable to the application of ASABE Standards, Engineering Practices, and Data. Conformity does not ensure compliance with applicable ordinances, laws and regulations. P

5、rospective users are responsible for protecting themselves against liability for infringement of patents. ASABE Standards, Engineering Practices, and Data initially approved prior to the society name change in July of 2005 are designated as “ASAE“, regardless of the revision approval date. Newly dev

6、eloped Standards, Engineering Practices and Data approved after July of 2005 are designated as “ASABE“. Standards designated as “ANSI“ are American National Standards as are all ISO adoptions published by ASABE. Adoption as an American National Standard requires verification by ANSI that the require

7、ments for due process, consensus, and other criteria for approval have been met by ASABE. Consensus is established when, in the judgment of the ANSI Board of Standards Review, substantial agreement has been reached by directly and materially affected interests. Substantial agreement means much more

8、than a simple majority, but not necessarily unanimity. Consensus requires that all views and objections be considered, and that a concerted effort be made toward their resolution. CAUTION NOTICE: ASABE and ANSI standards may be revised or withdrawn at any time. Additionally, procedures of ASABE requ

9、ire that action be taken periodically to reaffirm, revise, or withdraw each standard. Copyright American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers. All rights reserved.

16、shelled corn with 15.5% moisture content (source: Schmidt, 1948). NOTE For any lot of corn the characteristic index number may be determined by measuring kernel moisture and shelling percentage. The corn characteristic index is useful when it is desirable to get successive samples for a field as the

17、 corn matures and dries. For a given lot of corn standing in the field the index remains approximately constant as the moisture content drops and other factors change. Once established for a field of corn, the index permits making estimates from measurement of kernel moisture only. Corn with a chara

18、cteristic index of 4 or 5 has well-filled ears. Corn with ears only partly filled or having extensive insect damage will have a higher index number. Figure 1 applies to corn having a characteristic of 5 to 7. ASAE D241.4 OCT1992 (R2012) Copyright American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engin
