METHOD TO ESTIMATE THE CONSUMPTION OF ICE DURING FISH STORAGE.

Author(s) : BOERI R. L.

Type of article: Article, IJR article

Summary

THE AMOUNT OF ICE NEEDED FOR THE STORAGE OF FRESH FISH IS ECONOMICALLY IMPORTANT ESPECIALLY IN WARM CLIMATES. IT IS AFFECTED BY THE INSULATION OF THE FISH BOXES AND CONTAINERS AND BY THE PROCEDURES USED IN THE HANDLING AND TRANSPORTING OF ICED FISH. THE PAPER DESCRIBES A METHOD TO ESTIMATE ICE CONSUMPTION DURING FISH STORAGE. THE METHOD WAS TRIED WITH PLASTIC BOXES CONTAINING HAKE (MERLUCCIUS HUBBSI) WHEN ICE LOSSES WERE CAUSED BY HEAT TRANSFER DUE ONLY TO NATURAL CONVECTION. IT CAN BE USED ALSO TO TEST ANY KIND OF BOX OR CONTAINER, AND CAN GIVE VALUABLE INDICATIONS WITH OTHER HEAT TRANSFER CONDITIONS.
