Summary
Conventional and chilled aeration of rice and maize were investigated for Texas conditions using the simulation model AERATE. Continuous aeration performed best since it results in the smallest moisture losses and moisture gradients. Chilled aeration utilizes a refrigeration system to control the bin inlet air conditions. It is able to prevent moisture losses and to maintain the average grain temperature 15 deg C below that of conventionally-aerated rice and maize during the summer months.
