Abstract

Watermelon is the largest fruit in volume and mass; these characters cause many problems in its transportation and handling. This research performed to determine and compare physical and MECHANICAL PROPERTIES in different sizes and varieties of WATERMELON in order to obtain parameters usable in transportation, handling, harvest and storage. A statistical factorial experiments in the form of completely randomize design (2x3) was used to determine the PHYSICAL PROPERTIES of WATERMELON such as mass, volume, dimensions, density, spherical coefficient and geometric mean diameter. Another statistical factorial experiments in the form completely randomize design (2x3x4) was used to determine MECHANICAL PROPERTIES of WATERMELON such as stress, strain, elasticity modules and toughness. The results were analyzed by SPSS V.9 software. It is found that increasing WATERMELON size tends to decrease spherical coefficient and density. The smallest size of Charleston gray had maximum density (0.96gr/cm3) while the largest size of Crimson sweet had minimum density (0.93gr/cm3)between treatments. Comparing MECHANICAL PROPERTIES in two varieties of WATERMELONs showed that the MECHANICAL PROPERTIES of WATERMELONs are significantly affected by size and variety.
