inglés al español Técnico/Ingeniería Química, Ciencias/Ing. quím. heat penetration in packaged food

For retort pouches special methods of sealing the wires into the package and for locating the thermocouple sensor have been devised (Bhowmik and Tandon 1987; Spinak and Wiley 1982). These use a folded strip welded to the pouch sides which straightens up across the pouch when filled, so that the thermocouple sensor is correctly centred. Alternatively, Peterson and Adams (1983) used machined PTFE blocks to support the thermocouple; Thorpe and Atherton (1972) recommended the use of a nylon cross spacer across the pouch to locate the thermocouple.
