Résumé

A modelling methodology developed to simulate a wide range of heat and mass transfer processes in refrigerated storage of horticultural foods was used for prediction of mass tranfer of water vapour in packaged horticultural products. The mass transfer pathways, which are considered the most significant in industrial practice for a range of products and packaging systems, were modelled. Experimental testing was conducted for 10 product-package systems. Even though the model supports multi-zone package representation, a single zone was found to be adequate for all test data. Agreement between prediction and measurement was within likely data uncertainties for mass loss, packaging moisture uptake and relative humidity difference to the external environment. Sub-models for which further development may be justified are identified.
