Description
Numerous methods for predicting the cooling and freezing times of foods and beverages have been proposed, based on numerical, analytical, and empirical analysis. Selecting an appropriate estimation method from the many available methods can be challenging. This chapter reviews selected procedures available for estimating theair-blast convective cooling and freezing times of foods and beverages, and presents examples of these procedures. These procedures use the thermal properties of foods, discussed in Chapter 19.
