Nondestructive Detection of Hollow Heart in Potatoes Using Ultrasonics
Ultrasonic techniques were used to detect hollow heart in potatoes nondestructively. Fifty Russet Burbank potatoes were evaluated physically and sonically. A pair of dry-coupling 50-kHz ultrasonic transducers were used to generate an ultrasonic pulse with a power level of 0.22 W for the test of …

Non-invasive quality evaluation of fruits and vegetables using ultrasound
… changes during storage of fruits and vegetables. Hollow hearts in ‘Atlantic’ potatoes were successfully detected using the ultrasonic nondestructive evaluation system at 250 kHz. A objective this work was to develop a quantitative, non-invasive method for hollow heart detection in potatoes, and to …

Effects of topping, stem density, and stage of vine cutting on canopy growth and tuber yield yield of potato (Solanum tuberosum L.)
… nor in-row spacing increased the incidence of hollow heart of tubers in 1994. The results showed that the difference in tuber yield between topped and control plants was greater during long growing season and topped plants should be spaced at 25 cm in-row in order to obtain maximum tuber yield.
