Title : Packaging-material and surface-heat-transfer-coefficient-based tTrial calculations for the temperature distributions in container fed food products during thermal processing with packaging materials and surface heat transfer coefficient

Abstract:

Typically, cComputing the the internalside temperature distributions in container food products may will allows the the manufacturers of people who that is are developing new packaged food products s to identify acquire the indicators regarding of the heat degradation of food properties and optimise optimize athe ambient temperature patterns of thermal processes, and as well as the figure of packages. Notably, most Although most related report reports have of this type of research were discusseding the temperature and Fo values of the slowest heating zones; in these studies,, the temperature distributions obtained fromof the computing results and measured measurements were compared with those for the containers completelyfully filled with a 6% starch liquid and were found to be almost similar alongin thea vertical   direction and a horizontal directions. The computing models of the computing comprisedwere made of parts of starch and cylindrical plastic c ups ’ cups materials that were provided containeding the surface- heat- transfer- coefficient-related informations. The parts of the models have heat properties of the model components were analyzed using some measured by some equipment. Computational fluid dynamics was used for computing the This type of computing were was solved by the commercial CFD application for the unsteady heat-conductivity equation. ConsequentlyAs a result, the differences inof Fo values were 1 minute compared to the overall Fo values of which were 6 to 10 min.utes. And Moreover, the maximum of root mean square errors was approximately about 8 oC and they are about approximately less than 4 oC in the central parts of the containers.

What will audience learn from your presentation?
•    For the the manufacturers of people who are developing the food packageses andand for people considering the ambient temperature patterns during the of thermal processinges of packaged foods.
•    The applications we used are being sold.
•    For the optimization for to ensure of minimal the least heat degradation of foods.

 

Biography:

Mr. Inaba graduated from the faculty of electrical engineering atof the Keio University in 1984. He then joined the corporate R&D sector of the Toyo Seikan Group, which manufactures various  kinds of food packages  such  as  metal  cans  and  retort  pouches.  After working  there  for  20  years,  he  moved  to  the technology development division of Toyo Seikan Co., Ltd. as the manager of the Customer Solution department, wherein he was engaged in the development of technologies y for the filling, sealing, and sterilization of food and beverage packages. Since 2015, he has beenis joining Toyo Institute of Food Technology as working as aa research manager at the Toyo Institute of Food Technology
