Products from castor seeds have been widely used in various fields. In order to study the breaking behavior and rupture mechanism of castor seed episperm during coat shelling process, the force-structure property of coating castor seed was investigated by a self-developed texture analyzer with in situ optical microscopic observation. Influences of compression distance, velocity and working temperature were studied. The results showed that castor seed episperm rupture commonly happened from the tail end to the first end. Compression distance effect can change the episperm cracking degree. Under pressing distance 2–3 mm, the episperm easily cracked into two flaps, and the breaking force stabilized at 77 N. Pressing velocity has no significant effect on episperm breaking. Temperature changes the physical property. With an increase in temperature, breaking force presents a “slope” decline; under a temperature of 120 ℃, temperature effect on the breaking force decreased significantly and the breaking force fell to about 52 N. The research results can provide theoretical basis for the castor episperm peeling.

Castor oil has been widely used in various fields due to its properties, leading to large attention for its extraction mechanism. To research the castor oil extraction mechanism during pressing, a self‐developed uniaxial compression device combined with an in situ observation is established. The effects of pressure, loading speed, and creep time are investigated, and a finite element model coupling with multi‐physics is established for castor oil pressing extraction, verified by the seed cake experimental compression strain matching with numerical simulation under the same condition. Simulation results indicated that the pressing oil extraction process can be divided into two stages, Darcy's speed shows the first sharp decreasing stage and the second gradual increasing stage during porosity and pressure interaction. In the first stage, porosity is dominant on Darcy's speed. With porosity decreasing, the pressure effect on Darcy's speed exceeds porosity in the second stage. With seed thickness increasing, Darcy's speed first increases and then decreases. With loading speed increasing, Darcy's speed increases. Darcy's speed decreases constantly with creep time increasing. This study can provide basic theoretical and practical guidance for oil extraction.
