Residual gas effects on heat transfer in overpressure processing of flexible packages

Experiments have been performed to test effects of entrapped air on heating rate indices (f[sub h]) of test pouches subjected to variable conditions in overpressure retort processes. Teflon bricks with centrally located thermocouples were employed as a test material. Water was added within the pouch...
