Type of article: Article, IJR article

Summary

Freezing times of beef meat balls were determined in a prototype belt freezer. Working conditions covered a wide range of velocities and temperatures of the refrigerating air. The air flowed parallel or through the belt, either upwards or downwards. Freezing times were predicted by various methods, using three different sets of thermal properties for minced beef. The experimental and predicted freezing times showed a good correlation.
