Microwave assisted thawing of model frozen foods using feed-back temperature control and surface cooling.
Author(s) : VIRTANEN A. J., GOEDEKEN D. L., TONG C. H.
Type of article: Article
Summary
An apparatus was developed that combined microwave energy and cold air with different ambient temperatures to reduce thawing time and avoid run-away heating during microwave assisted thawing. Effects of microwave power level, sample thickness and surface air temperature on thawing time were investigated. Results are given.
