Abstract
Chile hoy en día es el mayor exportador de arándanos del hemisferio sur, con una red comercial en más de 100 países del mundo. Para una fruta pequeña y delicada como es el arándano el manejo del frio para su comercialización es de vital importancia, ya que se busca llegar a destino con una fruta de alta calidad. El objetivo de este proyecto fue evaluar las dimensiones y requerimientos de cámaras y túneles de pre-frío para arándanos de exportación. Las cámaras que se utilizaron son propiedad de la empresa Prize Proservice S.A. realizando los cálculos correspondientes de transferencia de calor, tanto del fruto como de los materiales participantes en el producto final para tener una mejor calidad de este en momento de exportar. Se determinaron los requerimientos de enfriamiento de cámara de pre frío durante la recepción de fruta en 531,7 kW y los requerimientos de enfriamiento de producto envasado y embalado posterior a la selección y para los diversos formatos de destino en 47,5 kW.
Chile is the largest exporter of blueberries in the southern hemisphere, with a commercial network in more than 100 countries in the world. For a small and delicate fruit such as blueberry, cold management for its commercialization is of vital importance, since it seeks to reach destination with a high quality fruit. The objective of this study was to evaluate the dimensions and equirements s and tunnels for export blueberries. The cameras that were used were owned by the company Prize Proservice S.A. performing the corresponding heat requirement calculations, both of the fruit and of the used materials in the final product to have a better quality at the moment of export. Cooling requirements for the precooling operation of blueberry fruit during incoming of fruit (531.7 kW), and after clamshells filling and boxing after fruit classification (47.5 kW) were calculated for different types of exports destiny.
