Question:
Baby carrots with an average diameter of 1 cm and an initial temperature of 20oC are blanched to give a center temperature of 80oC prior to further canning process. Hot water at a temperature of 98o C is used for blanching when a rotary blancher is used. Calculate how much of the time the rotary shaft needs to keep the carrots soaked in the hot water bath? Assume the rotary blancher has a surface heat transfer coefficient of 290 Wm-2K-1. The baby carrots have a specific heat of 3.5 kJ kg-1 °C-1, a thermal conductivity of 0.36 Wm-1K-1, and a density of 985 kg m-3.
