Immersion chilling and freezing (ICF) consist of soaking foods in a low freezing point liquid medium maintained at a low temperature that are considered secondary refrigerants. Data related to transport properties for the ...

Immersion chilling and freezing (ICF) of foods use aqueous solutions at low temperature that are considered secondary refrigerants. These solutions contain solutes such as NaCl, CaCl2, KCl, ethanol, glucose, etc. The ICF ...

The freezing point is one of the most critical properties required to complete the mathematical formulation related to the transport phenomena involved in the immersion chilling and freezing (ICF) of foods. Unfortunately, ...

This work presents a numerical model to simulate refrigerant flow through capillary tubes, commonly used as expansion devices in refrigeration systems. The capillary tube is considered straight and horizontal. The flow is ...
