A network model for the simulation of heat transfer processes: application to the freezing.

Summary

Transient temperatures and fluxes fields resulting from freezing processes of foods are studied by means of the network simulation method. With this aim in view and starting from the mathematical model of the problem. A network model is obtained by reticulating the spatial variable of the diffusion equation. Other non-lineal conditions, such as those ones based on the standard correlations for the heat transfer convection coefficients and/or radiation, can be applied to the boundary. The network, extended to the whole medium is run and solved using a circuit resolution software. An application to 1-D spherical co-ordinates is presented.
