Abstract
The objective of this work is to build an experimental portable forced-air freezing tunnel which creates a low or high pressure region surrounding the product. Comparative studies with air exhausting and blowing were conducted. The tunnel was built and placed inside a freezing product storage chamber, and the objective was to improve the air circulation and the thermal distribution between the product and cold air for a sample batch left inside the chamber. A heat transfer analysis comparing the process and the air distribution around the product was performed. The air evacuation process reduced up to 14% of the freezing time in relation to the blowing system and 10% in relation to the mixed system. 29 3 667 675 Allais, I., Alvarez, G., Flick, D., Modelling cooling kinetics of spheres during mist chilling (2006) Journal of Food Engineering, 72 (2), pp. 197-209 Alvarez, G., Letang, G., Transferts de chaleur et de matiere au sein d'un échanger de type 'palette' (1994) Revue du Froid, 47, pp. 47-49 Antoniali, S., Cortez, L.A.B., Resfriamento rápido com ar forçado para conservação pós-colheita de alface crespa (2005) In: Encontro de energia no meio rural, 3, 2000, Campinas.
