    Open area and screen resistance measurements on fugal screens
    (BSES, 1988) Noble, AG
    To determine whether the decrease in fugal capacity was due to the working screen or the wedgewire backing supporting it, a series of measurements were carried out on test specimens cut from the top, middle and bottom of segments of chrome-nickel working screens removed from the two trial machines. One of these had been fitted with a wedgewire backing and the other with conventional woven mesh backing. These measurements, which were carried out by the author at the Chemical Engineering Department of the University of Queensland, included the following: Slot width and open area determination; Photomicrographs of each screen section; Screen resistance of each specimen.

    Fibre characteristics of cane - results of measurements carried out at Bundaberg during 1987 season
    (BSES, 1987) Noble, AG
    During September, 1987 a total of twenty-three samples of cane were tested for extreme fibre characteristics at BSES in Bundaberg. The main purpose of this testing program, which was introduced during 1986 season, is to screen all prospective Q canes prior to their release to obtain some indication which varieties are likely to cause handling problems during the milling process.
