摘要: 为研究叶菜类蔬菜在真空预冷过程中温度场、水及水蒸气浓度场变化规律,利用Comsol软件建立真空预冷模型,模型包括多孔介质的扩散与传热耦合过程,由五部分联立求解。通过对结构简单的肉制类火腿的模拟,验证了真空预冷模型可靠性,进一步验证模型对叶菜类蔬菜的适用性。模拟与实验对比结果表明:肉制类表面最大温差3.1 ℃,中心最大温差4.3 ℃,整体趋势相同,模型具有可靠性;叶菜类中菠菜最大温差在3 ℃以内,菠菜、小白菜、菜心、芥兰温度变化趋势与模拟一致,模型适用于叶菜类蔬菜。预测表明:叶脉影响叶菜类蔬菜的参数分布,沿叶脉处温度、水及水蒸气浓度均较低,模拟对真空预冷中各参数设定有指导作用。Abstract: In order to study the variation law of temperature field,water concentration field and water vapor concentration field in the vacuum precooling process of leaf vegetables,Comsol software was used to establish a vacuum precooling model,which included the coupling process of diffusion and heat transfer of porous media and was solved by five parts simultaneously. The reliability of the vacuum precooling model was verified by simulating the ham with simple structure. The applicability of the model to leaf vegetables was further verified. The results showed that Ham surface temperature maximum difference was 3.1 ℃,and center was 4.3℃. The overall temperature trend was the same. The model had reliability. The maximum temperature difference of spinach from leaf vegetables was less than 3 ℃. The temperature variation trend of spinach,cabbage,cabbage and cabbage was consistent with the simulation. The model was suitable for leaf vegetables. The results showed that leaf vein affected the parameter distribution of leaf vegetables. Temperature,water concentration and water vapor concentration were all lower along the veins. It could guide the setting of various parameters of vacuum precooling.
