ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for controlling the addition of a liquid to a continuous flow of material. An algorithm is described for controlling the hydration process within a computerized grain delivery system. The grain delivery system operates by adding moisture to grain moving through the system, testing the moisture level of the hydrated grain and controlling the rate of flow of the wetting agent as a function of the wet grain moisture reading. In addition, a method is described for determining the relationship between dry grain moisture level, hydration level and the expected wet grain moisture level reading. Finally, a communications link is described which connects the grain delivery system to a remote computer.
