Abstract
Optimum chilling schemes for a two- or three-stage chilling system wer e developed using a validated heat and mass transfer model and a patte rn search algorithm. The optimization was performed for the ambient te mperature during each stage for an air velocity of 0.5 m/s and 90% rel ative humidity. The experiments were conducted to evaluate the effect of the optimum conditions on beef quality after ageing.
