Summary

Effective vacuum cooling simulation has the advantage of low cost and short period, and therefore is important in theory and application. Based on the theories of unsteady heat transfer and mass conservation, a mathematical model developed by CFD software is used to predict the variation process of temperature and mass during vacuum cooling for cabbage. The simulative result matches well with the experimental data. The error between simulation and test result is no more than 4% for temperature, and no more than 6.5% for weight. So the mathematical model can benefit for the practical application of vacuum cooling.
