Summary

Drying is one of the main quality deteriorations during the frozen storage of food. It has been thought that drying does not occur in a packaged food. However, it is observed that drying happens and frosting on the surface of food or internal wall of the container is perceived when there is a temperature fluctuation on the frozen storage. In our previous research, a physical model for predicting the effect of temperature fluctuation during storage on the drying weight was proposed. The prediction results suggested that drying rate increased with higher average temperature of the storage chamber, wider amplitude and higher frequency of the temperature fluctuation. In this study, a storage experiment using ice as a sample enclosed in a hermetic container was carried out to obtain actual measurement data. Experimental data were compared with the modelling results, and the relationship between the temperature fluctuation and the drying weight was clarified.
