Abstract
ABSTRACTInstitutional size retort pouches (15 × 12 × 1) filled with 10% bentonite were processed in water with overriding air pressure. The heat penetration parameter, fh, was measured at seven flow rates from 10 gal/min (Re = 3000) to 110 gal/min (Re = 33000). Apparent convection heat transfer coefficients (h‐values) were calculated. Significant differences were found for both the h‐value and observed fh value as a function of flow rate. The h‐values ranged from 33–48 BTU/hr ft2 F and the observed fh values ranged from 23.0–20.1 min for 10 and 110 gal/min, respectively.
