摘要
In ohmic heating an electrical current is applied to a flowing food stream, and the material is sterilised by internally generated heat. It is important to be able to predict the sterilisation effect in a practical situation, where complex food shapes are heated. A finite-element model has thus been developed to study the ohmic heating of foods. The equations solved by the model are described, and it is shown that the model predicts the behaviour of real systems. The use of the model to determine the correct size of particle for a commercial process is outlined and suggestions for further development discussed. © 1990.
