The relative cryoprotective effects of flaxseed protein hydrolysate and pectin in comparison with conventional cryoprotectant (sucrose + sorbitol sodium tripolyphosphates) on stabilization proteins surimi Capoor (Cyprinus carpio) were investigated during freezing (−20°C for 4 months) chilling storage (4°C 10 days). Although caused to improve water-holding capacity (27.8%; 4°C 21.5%; −20°C) acco...

The VAV Reheat Versus Active Chilled Beams & DOAS paper published in the May 2013 issue of the ASHRAE Journal covers an HVAC system design competition for a real office building at UC in Davis, California. The systems under evaluation are Active Chilled Beams with Dedicated Outdoor Air (ACB+DOAS), a Variable Air Volume system with Reheat (VAVR) and a hybrid of VAVR and ACB’s. Energy and cost mo...

This research investigated the combined effects of cooking methods (household griddle (C1), household conventional oven (C2), industrial (C3), storage temperature (refrigeration /freezing) and packaging system (aerobic vacuum), on quality chicken burgers. The results show that refrigeration favours retention moisture content juiciness burgers, but application vacuum (RV) was best option to main...

The paper describes the calculation of evaporative-radiant cooling recycled water in summer air-conditioning systems. A differential equation for heat balance flowing down an inclined plane is derived. As one possible way increasing efficiency air conditioning systems based on by adiabatic evaporation flow use night-time evaporative water, followed daytime insulated storage tanks. temperature c...
