Quick Bibliography Series
Bibliographies in the Quick Bibliography Series of the
National Agricultural Library, are intended primarily for
current awareness, and as the title of the series implies, are
not indepth exhaustive bibliographies on any given subject.
However, the citations are a substantial resource for recent
investigations on a given topic. They also serve the purpose
of bringing the literature of agriculture to the interested
user who, in many cases, could not access it by any other
means. The bibliographies are derived from computerized on-
line searches of the AGRICOLA data base. Timeliness of topic
and evidence of extensive interest are the selection criteria.
The author/searcher determines the purpose, length, and search
strategy of the Quick Bibliography. Information regarding
these is available upon request from the author/searcher.
Copies of this bibliography may be made or used for
distribution without prior approval. The inclusion or
omission of a particular publication or citation may not be
construed as endorsement or disapproval.

Abstract: So as to be able to evaluate the behaviour of cold
greenhouses during the night in Mediterranean area, a
representative mathematical pattern of nocturnal energetic
balance of single plastic skin greenhouses is proposed. Such
mathematical pattern allowed a forecasting analysis of the
thermal level inside the greenhouse for short time intervals;
the results obtained in this way were compared to the measured
values of a small frame type greenhouse without any artificial
energetic contribution. A special attention was given to the
elaboration of temperature datas during the clear sky nights
in the winter, whereby the thermal gradient inversion between
inside and outside occurs.

Abstract: A solar-charged, battery-powered, electrocuting
grid was combined with a white plywood base to make a
portable, pulsed-current, pest-electrocuting device that
attracted and killed stable flies, Stomoxys calcitrans (L.),
outdoors. The grid was powered once every 1-2 s by a 0.016-s
pulse of 60-Hz alternating current of 4 mA and 9,500 V. Power
was turned off at night by a photoresistor. The trap
functioned continuously for 14 d with an unrecharged 12-V,
18A/h lawn-tractor battery and killed as many as 4,000 flies
per day. Solar cells were used to charge a single 12-V battery
continuously that operated 12 grids for a period of 90 d. The
grid did not short circuit for any length of time even during
heavy rainstorms or when large insects were killed. The
incorporation of moire patterns and the utilization of the
correct size, orientation, and placement of wires made the
electrocuting grid itself attractive to stable flies. The
traps were spaced at distances of up to 120 m from the battery
and pulse circuit. The electrocuting traps were more effective
than sticky traps and avoided the problems associated with
chemicals. They are well suited for use around calf pens, dog
kennels, or large animal shelters.

Abstract: Transparent water-filled polyethylene (PE) tubes of
five different circumferences were used in a passive solar
system for greenhosue heating. Evaluation of their thermal
performance gave the following results: The relationship
between the size of tube circumference and the amount of
energy collected and released per tube linear metre was
positive parabolic. The efficiency of water tubes in releasing
heat energy expressed as the proportion of energy released to
that collected per collection-release energy cycle varied
according to radiation and temperature conditions. Under
unfavourable conditions, of low radiation intensity followed
by low minimum air temperature, the superiority of big tubes
over small ones was clear. The daily heat energy balance of
tubes was usually negative, i.e., the amount of energy
released was greater than that collected during a given
collection-release cycle. Under favourable conditions, of high
radiation levels followed by mild minimum air temperatures,
the release efficiency was usually slightly higher in the
small tubes, with ususally positive daily energy balance in
all tubes, i.e., the energy released was less than the energy
collected during the cycle. Under intermediate conditions,
theses efficiencies differed slightly or were equal for all
tube sizes with either positive or negative daily energy
balances.

Abstract: Small rectangular bales of alfalfa were
successfully dried using two forced-air drying systems with
heat from LP gas, solar energy (with off-peak electricity on
some tests) or ambient air, and with average dry matter
densities of alfalfa ranging from 80 to 166 kg/m3 (5.0-10.4
lb/ft3) with average moisture contents up to 37% (w.b.). The
drying rates, pressure requirements for forced flow,
psychrometric data, and hay quality before and after drying
are reported. The data and a developed "drying parameter" for
small rectangular alfalfa bales provide guidance for design of
baled hay dryers.

Abstract: Artificially drying lucerne immediately after
cutting eliminates quality losses during field drying and
minimizes the number of field operations. The average
potential saving, calculated over a 20-year period for
southeast Queensland, is about $40 (Australian)/t of hay,
minus drying costs. The optimum technique of hay drying
(immediately after cutting) in a solar-supplemented, step-flow
dryer was investigated. A computer model was developed to
minimize the cost of drying and to define the optimum drying
parameters. Sensitivity analyses were carried out for drying
air temperatures in the range of 30 to 70 degrees C. The
results show that there is an optimum number of hours of
operation per day (8 h/d) for any combination of the other
variables. The most critical factors affecting annual savings
are the temperature of drying air, the length of the drying
season, the cost of fuel, and the specific cost of the
collector, An economic analysis showed that an average annual
increase in profit of about $16/t of dried hay (at 12% w.b.)
could be attained under optimum sets of operating conditions.

Abstract: An 8 m3 (280 ft.3) crushed limestone rockbed was
tested to determine the location of a simulated solar heat
charge within the rockbed arid the time required for passive
discharge by conduction through a concrete floor. An equation
for computing the location of peak temperature in the rockbed
is compared with the data. Approximately two days were
required for passive discharge of the heat from the insulated
rockbed by conduction arid free convection.
