Measuring the thermal conductivity of meat products in cook/chill processes.

Author(s) : NORTH M. F., WILLIX J., CARSON J.

Summary

The paper presents a new method to measure the thermal conductivity of meat products. In the experimental procedure that was developed, samples were heated and held at a set temperature until the moisture content reached equilibrium, and then cooled. Thermal conductivity measurements were made using the line source heat probe method on a single sample during the cooling period. This allowed data over a range of elevated temperatures to be collected without any significant change in composition. Thermal conductivity data using the procedure are reported for a lean beef sample between the temperatures of 10 and 65 °C.
