Abstract: | Bulk density, specific heat capacity, bulk thermal conductivity and bulk thermal diffusivity of medium-grain rough rice (LIDO cultivar) have been studied. Specific heat was determined by DSC, thermal conductivity by the probe method and bulk thermal conductivity indirectly from bulk density, specific heat capacity and bulk thermal conductivity. All the thermal properties have been determined at different moisture contents and temperatures used during cooling and storage operations and the effect of these variables has been investigated. It has been shown that moisture content has the greatest effect on specific heat and bulk thermal conductivity. Temperature also affected these thermal properties, but to a smaller extent. Mathematical expressions have been developed to determine each of these thermophysical properties as a function of moisture content and temperature.List of Abbreviations and Symbols Cp Specific heat capacity (kJ/kg °C) - k Bulk thermal conductivity (W/m °C) - T Temperature (ºC) - W Moisture content (%, d.b.) - Bulk thermal diffusivity (m2/s) - Bulk density (kg/m3) |
