Abstract
ABSTRACT EXPERIMENTALLY determined thermal properties of a broccoH stalk were supplied to a simplified stalk heat transfer model—an axisymmetric finite element model—to simulate the temperature field of the stalk in a precooling process. Temperature differences between the simulated values and the values measured in a laboratory forced-air cooler were within 1.1 °C (5.6% of the initial temperature difference between the cooling air and the product).
