Type of article: Article
Summary
The objective of this work was to determine the thermal conductivity and the thermal diffusivity of papaya and cashew apple as a function of temperature. For the experimental determination, the heat source probe technique was used. Thermal properties were measured for the temperature range of 20-40°C for papaya and 25-45°C for cashew. Thermal conductivities ranged from 0.58 to 0.62 W/m.°C and 0.57 to 0.61 W/m.°C. The empirical models for each property as a function of temperature were obtained.
