BULK REFRIGERATION OF FRUITS AND VEGETABLES PART II: COMPUTER ALGORITHM FOR HEAT LOADS AND MOISTURE LOSS

摘要: A computer algorithm was developed that estimates the latent and sensible heat loads due to bulk refrigeration of fruits vegetables. The also predicts commodity moisture loss temperature distribution which occurs during refrigeration. Part I focused upon thermophysical properties commodities flowfield parameters govern mass transfer from fresh This paper, II, discusses modeling methodology utilized in current describes development models. II compares results experimental data taken literature, and, a parametric study performed with algorithm. In addition, this paper reviews existing numerical models for determining
