Notes:
Four silicone oils with viscosities ranging from 0.0013 Pa-s to 0.3385 Pa-s were used as model liquid foods to measure the heating rates in a specially-designed single-can flame sterilizer. A previously-developed mathematical heat transfer model was experimentally tested with respect to the effect of liquid viscosity, can rotation, combustion gases crossflow velocity, and can-burner separation. For all the cases studied, order of magnitude agreement was obtained between experimentally measured and predicted heating rates, with experimental values ranging from 0.16°C/s to 0.52°C/s.
