Principles of Mechanical Aeration:

I. Avoid to reduce grain moisture content:

- Choose min air flow with the basis of meet aeration requirements.

- As min as possible atmosphere temperature and as high as possible humidity.

- Reasonable aeration equipment configuration.

- Judge the right time for mechanical aeration.

II. Prevent and handle moisture condensation of grain bulk:

- Judge the right aeration condition

- The temperature difference between inside and outside grain bulk should be smaller than the temperature difference of moisture condensation.

- After aeration, ensure the temperature difference between grain bulk and inside silo temperature is smaller than moisture condensation.

- When moisture condensation happens, take measure immediately according to bad grain degree.

- When light moisture condensation happens, by nature aeration and continuous aeration to exhaust hot and humidity air.

III. Prevent and handle aeration dead corner:

- When design aeration networks, with the basis of meeting aeration requirements, choose small air path ratio system, and equip reasonable equipment.

- Use single pipe to handle aeration dead corner.
