Résumé

High relative humidity (over 90%), and suitable temperatures are required in fruit and vegetable preservation. It is difficult for traditional cold stores to achieve this high humidity, resulting in moisture loss and a reduction in the quality of the fruit and vegetable. The authors have found a solution to this problem through the design of a new type of cooling device, using a mixture of water and ice as the cooling medium. The principle involves lowering the temperature of the cold store and increasing humidity at the same time by spraying water at 0°C with a special device. Heat transfer takes place between the water and air, allowing a high relative humidity (95% or even close to 100%) to be maintained inside the cold room. An experimental application has shown the approach to be effective. The technique is not only applicable to fresh fruit and vegetables, but also to other fresh products that require high humidity.
