In the grading system, the break "chop" is segregated into purifier stocks of a specific particle size range. The narrower the range, the more precise and effective is the work of the purifier. The largest particles of endosperm originating in the first three break passages are too large for immediate inclusion in the finished semolina and are passed to the sizing rolls. These rolls have very fine corrugations, up to 20 per centimetre. When set accurately they clip the coarse semolina into smaller pieces and make a minimum amount of flour in the process. 1, record 16, English, - sizing%20roll

Pore size distribution. There are basically three different techniques for measuring the pore size of geotextiles. Initially, when all geotextiles were woven, the pore size was measured by using a calibrated microscope. In the case of rectangular pores, the size of the pore is taken as the smaller dimension. A grading curve for the pore size distribution can then be drawn on a semi-logarithmic graph(Figure 3. 8), with the percentage of the pores having the size specified, or a smaller size, shown on the vertical axis. The appearance of the pore size distribution graph is rather similar to a particle size distribution graph for a soil. 1, record 21, English, - pore%20size%20distribution

Record number: 22, Textual support number: 1 CONT
Clogging, blocking and blinding. If the geotextile pore openings are slightly too small, then there will be insufficient initial wash-through of fine soil particles to promote the rapid formation of an efficient graded filter in the adjacent soil. Where the geotextile pore openings are even smaller, then there is a serious risk that either blinding, severe blocking or severe clogging will develop with time. Blocking is where soil particles resting on the surface of the geotextile, either totally or partially obstruct the pore openings.... Blinding is a special form of severe blocking, where the soil grading permits the suffusion of fine soil particles which are too large to pass through the geotextile.... Where the size of many of the soil particles is very close to that of the geotextile pore openings, then they are likely to enter the pores and become trapped within the geotextile. This can cause severe clogging which is most likely to arise in thick non-woven geotextiles with a complex pore structure. 3, record 22, English, - clogging
