MODELLING OF TEMPERATURE FLUCTUATIONS WITHIN FROZEN FOODS STORED IN CYLINDRICAL CONTAINERS.

Author(s) : ZURITZ C. A., SASTRY S. K., MCCOY S. C.

Type of article: Article, IJR article

Summary

A MATHEMATICAL MODEL IS PRESENTED FOR THE PREDICTION OF TEMPERATURE RESPONSE IN CYLINDRICALLY SHAPED FROZEN FOODS WHEN EXPOSED TO A PERIODICALLY VARYING ENVIRONMENTAL STORAGE TEMPERATURE. THE MODEL WAS VERIFIED AGAINST EXPERIMENTAL TEMPERATURES OBTAINED FROM FROZEN ICE-CREAM SAMPLES EXPOSED TO TWO DIFFERENT REGIMES. EXPERIMENTAL AND PREDICTED TEMPERATURES PRESENTED EXCELLENT AGREEMENT. PACKAGING MATERIALS AND PLASTIC OVERWRAPS CAN PROVIDE AN EFFECTIVE RESISTANCE AGAINST AMBIENT TEMPERATURE VARIATIONS.
