A novel low energy defrost process for the frozen food chain.
Author(s) : DAVIES T., CAMPBELL R., THANGAMANI V.
Type of article: Periodical article
Summary
This paper presents innovative defrost system which is virtually energy-free and has the additional advantage of minimizing temperature excursions in the frozen food during and after defrost. It is applicable to all stages in the frozen food chain. This novel defrost system has been tested in a frozen food retail display cabinet and a frozen food walk-in store. In both instances the defrost was normally carried out using electric resistance heaters. The test procedures are described and the test results are presented.
