Measurements of the Particle Size Distribution of Flour.

The particle size distribution of flour, measured microscopically by gravitational sedimentation, centrifugal sedimentation, and sieving, all gave mean diameters and distribution curves which agreed with one another within experimental error. Measurements using changes in electrolytic resistivity gave particle size distributions that deviated significantly and nonrandomly from the other methods.
