| Abstract/Description: | The dynamic flow properties of two important coproducts of virgin coconut oil (VCO) i. e. coconut milk residue flour (MRF) and VCO cake flour (CF) were studied. The basic flowability energy of CF was higher than MRF and increased with moisture content. The change in compressibility and shear stress, with applied normal stress and moisture content, indicated that these powders are highly cohesive. For both flours, the energy required to make the powder flow increased with moisture at all experimental air velocity. Moisture did not significantly influence the cohesion and unconfined yield strength of MRF, whereas for CF there was significant effect due to the presence of moisture. The wall friction angle of both the flours increased significantly with moisture and decreased with applied normal stress. The results from this study indicated that, both CF and MRF at around 4.00% moisture content had better flow characteristics than at higher moisture levels. |
