Summary

A COMPUTER SIMULATION MODEL WAS DEVELOPED TO PREDICT STORAGE STABILITY OF PACKAGED INTERMEDIATE MOISTURE APPLES STORED UNDER FLUCTUATING TEMPERATURE. THE SIMULATION MODEL INCLUDED: ONE DIMENSIONAL HEAT AND MASS TRANSFER EQUATIONS WITH APPROPRIATE BOUNDARY CONDITIONS, MODELS FOR CHEMICAL REACTIONS. EXPERIMENTAL AND COMPUTER PREDICTED RESULTS SHOWED GOOD AGREEMENT WITH EACH OTHER. AN EXTERNAL TEMPERATURE FLUCTUATION DID NOT CAUSE LOCAL MOISTURE DIFFERENCES WITHIN THE PACKAGE.
