2. Moisture meter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moisture_meter

   Moisture meters are measuring instruments used to measure the percentage of water in a given substance. Direct gravimetric measurement of free moisture requires removing, drying, and weighing of a sample, so moisture sensors measure the volumetric water content indirectly by using some other property of the substrate, such as electrical ...

3. Soil moisture sensor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil_moisture_sensor

   A simple soil moisture sensor for gardeners. Soil moisture sensors measure the volumetric water content in soil. [1] Since the direct gravimetric measurement of free soil moisture requires removing, drying, and weighing of a sample, soil moisture sensors measure the volumetric water content indirectly by using some other property of the soil, such as electrical resistance, dielectric constant ...

4. Proctor compaction test - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proctor_compaction_test

   Proctor compaction test. The Proctor compaction test is a laboratory method of experimentally determining the optimal moisture content at which a given soil type will become most dense and achieve its maximum dry density. The test is named in honor of Ralph Roscoe Proctor [de], who in 1933 showed that the dry density of a soil for a given ...

   The test indicated that no-till soil demonstrated significantly improved water-holding capacity compared to other soils that rapidly degraded. "I faced numerous challenges in 2009-2010 before the ...

6. Equilibrium moisture content - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equilibrium_moisture_content

   The moisture content of grains is an essential property in food storage. The moisture content that is safe for long-term storage is 12% for corn, sorghum, rice and wheat and 11% for soybean [1] At a constant relative humidity of air, the EMC will drop by about 0.5% for every increase of 10 °C air temperature. [2]

7. Moisture analysis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moisture_analysis

   Moisture analysis. Moisture analysis covers a variety of methods for measuring the moisture content in solids, liquids, or gases. For example, moisture (usually measured as a percentage) is a common specification in commercial food production. [1] There are many applications where trace moisture measurements are necessary for manufacturing and ...
