EFFECT OF AIR SPEED, TEMPERATURE AND CARCASS WEIGHT ON THE COOLING RATES AND WEIGHT LOSSES OF GOAT CARCASSES.

Author(s) : GIGIEL A., CREED P. G.

Type of article: Article, IJR article

Summary

THE PAPER PROVIDES DATA ON THE COOLING TIME IN THE DEEP LEG AND SHOULDER OF GOAT CARCASSES (5, 10 AND 20 KG IN WEIGHT) IN AIR VELOCITIES OF 0.5, 1 AND 3 M/S. THE ANALYSIS HAS BEEN CARRIED OUT TO ENABLE COOLING TIME PREDICTIONS TO BE MADE FOR ANY AIR TEMPERATURE THAT AVOIDS SURFACE FREEZING. THERE WAS NO SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCE IN WEIGHT LOSS (AVERAGE 2.48% OVER 23 H) FOR DIFFERENT VALUES OF CARCASS WEIGHT OR AIR VELOCITY.
