Thermal behaviour of fruits and vegetables in industrial packages and transport units during quick precooling.

Summary

Experimental data are presented for the temperature histories during quick precooling of fruits and vegetables in an industrial wind tunnel system. Approaches for prediction of the cooling time and the air flow pressure losses are given. The influence of the precooling on the food quality and shelf-life is also considered.
