ShareFACTORS AFFECTING SHRINKAGE OF FOODS IN REFRIGERATED STORAGE.
Author(s) : SASTRY S. K.
Summary
FACTORS AFFECTING SHRINKAGE ARE DISCUSSED BOTH FOR RESPIRING AND NONRESPIRING PRODUCTS IN REFRIGERATED AND FROZEN STORAGE. EACH FACTOR IS DISCUSSED IN RELATION TO ITS EFFECT ON WATER VAPOUR PRESSURE DIFFERENCE AND/OR THE RESISTANCE TO MOISTURE TRANSFER. THE WATER VAPOUR PRESSURE DIFFERENCE IS AFFECTED BY RELATIVE HUMIDITY, EVAPORATIVE COOLING, RESPIRATORY HEAT, AND DISSOLVED SOLIDS. THE RESISTANCE IS AFFECTED BY AIR VELOCITY, PRODUCT SHAPE, SURFACE STRUCTURE, AND OTHER VARIABLES.
