THERMAL DIFFUSIVITY OF FOODS MEASURED BY SIMPLE EQUIPMENT.
Author(s) : POULSEN K. P.
Type of article: Article
Summary
THE PAPER DESCRIBES HOW MEASUREMENTS OF THERMAL DIFFUSIVITY CAN BE MADE BY CHEAP SIMPLE EQUIPMENT AVAILABLE IN MOST LABORATORIES. THE FOOD SAMPLE IS FILLED INTO A CYLINDER AND A THERMOGRAM IS PLOTTED AFTER PLACING THE CYLINDER IN A THERMOSTATED WATER BATH. THE DIFFUSIVITY IS CALCULATED FROM THE GRAPH. THE CALCULATED DIFFUSIVITIES ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH DATA FROM LITERATURE.
