Abstract
ABSTRACTThermal properties of duck fatty liver (foie gras), foie gras emulsion and fatty liver fat, as well as regular duck fat, were determined as a function of temperature. Density of foie gras and foie gras fat and emulsion at 20°C was measured as 947, 836, and 928 kg/m3, respectively. Differential scanning calorimetry thermograms for foie gras fat resulted in melting points ranging from –20 to 40°C. Values for the specific heat at 65°C for the fatty liver, its emulsion and fat, and duck fat were 1.79, 2.38, 1.71, and 2.48 J/g°C, respectively. Thermal conductivity of foie gras (organ) and its emulsion at 40°C was determined as 0.330 and 0.428 W/m°C, respectively. Mathematical models based on composition and temperature were developed for all the thermal properties obtained in this work.
