Résumé

A heat and mass transfer model of apple fruit, based on reaction-diffusion equations, was developed in Comsol Multiphysics (Comsol AB, Stockholm, Sweden) in the Matlab environment (The Mathworks Inc, Natick, USA). The model accepts as inputs the air temperature and the air velocity and predicts the product temperature and gas composition during different stages of the apple cold chain. Software code for predicting quality changes as a function of storage time,temperature and gas composition was written in Matlab. The software for the developed heat and mass transfer model was coupled to the software for the quality kinetic models: the predicted product temperatures and gas concentrations are applied as inputs to the different quality models, resulting in the prediction of apple quality under different temperature scenarios during storage. Simulation of changes in apple quality along a reference cold chain of apple in Belgium was carried out.
