Enhanced heat transfer in food chilling, freezing and thawing using heat pipes.
Author(s) : JAMES C., KETTERINGHAM L., JAMES S. J.
Summary
The rate of chilling, freezing and especially thawing of meat and other foods is often limited by its poor thermal conductivity. Providing a high conductivity path to the thermal centre of the food is a potential method of overcoming this problem. Heat pipes, thermosiphons and other high conductivity inserts can increase chilling, freezing and thawing rates in food. Examples are presented.
