Dr. Mohd Sobri Takriff., The study of Temperature Distribution for Fresh Fruit Bunch during Sterilization Process. J. Ind. Eng. Res., 1(6), 25-32, 2015 INTRODUCTION The main purpose of having a mathematical modeling for single fresh fruit bunch is to predict the center temperature of FFB during sterilization process to indicate whether the fruit is sufficiently cooked. The model is used as a practical approach to determine the adequacy of sterilization instead of having to insert the temperature sensor probe into the center of fresh fruit bunch every time. The spreadsheet user interface is one of the common engineering tools for quantitative analysis. Not only it is easily found in the market, it is also user-friendly, making it an easy to learn tool. Spreadsheet tools can be used to model heat penetration problems which allow the user to evaluate change in parameters and its significance towards overall efficiency of heat penetration. The model allows us to estimate the amount of heat transfer and steam consumption based on the center temperature of FFB at different locations inside the sterilizer cage. Besides that, it can also be used for analyzing the significance of changes in the operating conditions such as heating steam temperature, sterilization period, and different FFB weight and so on for optimization purposes during the process. The modeling work of heat transfer for fresh fruit bunch was made by applying finite differential explicit method for two dimensions using spreadsheet. An overview of previous work which was based on heat conduction spreadsheet model to predict time required for mesocarp to attain thermal equilibrium with the steam temperature is given by Mohd. Halim Shah. I [3]. Another modeling study conducted by Chan SY of using two theoretical bulk models developed for heat transfer model using computer software to investigate the temperature and time required for the center of fresh fruit bunch to become cooked [2]. In this paper, the development of the model was made based on finite difference explicit method using spreadsheet by considering the heat transfer by conduction through the interior nodes of fresh fruit bunch and convection through the surface nodes. Several assumptions have been made in order to simplify the model calculation as per discussed later. METHODS AND METHODOLOGY Corresponding Author: Arif bin Ab Hadi, Department of Chemical and Process Engineering, Faculty of Engineering and Built Environment, National University of Malaysia, UKM, Bangi Selangor, Malaysia
2 26 Arif bin Ab Hadi et al, 2015 Model Description: This model simulates the actual condition of sterilization process in batch process. During the process, the FFBs inside the sterilizer cage are heated up gradually from ambient temperature of atmospheric pressure up to 140 C and 3 bar g for 80 minutes. After the end of cooking time, the FFB is cooled down. Assumptions: 1) Two-dimensional, time dependent, unsteady state, heat conduction heat transfer. 2) Assume to be rectangular block with equivalent volume, actually is ellipsoidal. 3) Comprises of various parts of an oil palm fresh fruit bunch (FFB), namely fruitlet mesocarp or fiber, shell and nut, and the stalk. 4) The estimated physical properties for fresh fruit bunch is obtained for all various parts of FFB as per stated above. 5) The mode of heat transfer from steam to outer surface of FFB is by convection and from outer surface that penetrates radially inwards FFB is by conduction. 6) The rectangular surface temperature is assumed to be the same as steam temperature. 7) Model is divided into a number of concentric rectangular nodes in the fresh fruit bunch (FFB) layer. 8) The estimated diameter of FFB is 0.30m, equivalent to the thickness of rectangular block. 9) Divided equally into 36 square sub-regions by network of mesh size dx = dy = 0.06m (0.3/5). See Figure ) Time domain is divided into small time step, dt and each node represents temperature, which depends to time changes. Fig. 1: 36 nodes for the entire region Rectangular Physical Properties: A set of initial values which was either measure experimentally or by estimation are taken from existing literatures and the source will be referred to as per below. The initial values are taken as average or mean value to simplify the calculation in this model. The initial values used in this calculation are as per Table 1 below: Table 1: Physical Properties of Individual Components of FFB Thermal Diffusivity, α Density, ρ Specific Heat, Cp Thermal Conductivity, k (m2/s x 10-7) (kg/m3) (kj/kgk) (W/mK) Mesocarp Stalk Nut Chan, S.Y., Modeling and Simulation of the Fresh Fruit bunches (FFB) during Sterilization Process, Universiti Malaya: Master Thesis. [2] Masitah Hasan and Abdullah Hashim [4] had quoted in their studies a previous work by Choi and Okos (1983) in order to estimate the overall specific heat value, Cp of a liquid food by correlating the individual specific heat with the mass fraction and temperature using polynomial fitting equation in order to determine the overall specific heat for FFB based on individual components of fresh fruit bunch, FFB namely mesocarp, shell, kernel and stalk.
3 27 Arif bin Ab Hadi et al, 2015 In this study, the overall specific heat of fresh fruit bunch which was represented by the mean weighted average based on the mass fraction can be expressed as where = Overall specific heat for fresh fruit bunch = Mass fraction of fresh fruit bunch component = Specific heat at temperature T for component i Since the specific heat for fresh fruit bunch can be estimated using this method, therefore other physical property values such as thermal conductivity, density etc can also be estimated by applying this method. Previous studies by Rajanaidu, Tan, Rao and Chow [5] on the typical values of FFB mass fraction determined experimentally is used to calculate the overall physical properties of fresh fruit bunch. The overall physical properties of fresh fruit bunch estimated using the above is tabulated as per Table 2. Table 2: Mean values of FFB physical properties Thermal Diffusivity, α Density, ρ Specific Heat, Cp Thermal Conductivity, k (m2/s x 10-7) (kg/m3) (kj/kgk) (W/mK) Estimation Of Convective Heat Transfer Coefficient: Considering the nature of heat transfer due to forced convection between the steam and fresh fruit bunch, the heat transfer coefficient correlation for prescribed sphere type geometry recommended by Whitaker [8] takes an expression of the form All thermal properties are evaluated at free stream temperature, T except µ S, which is evaluated at surface temperature. The estimated heat transfer coefficient value for fresh fruit bunch is obtained by comparing to an initial value which was taken from previous research on heat transfer coefficient with similar operating condition as the model using the above correlation. Few assumptions were made in order to estimate the variables above. In this case, the difference in the characteristic length of the fresh fruit bunch as compared to the fruitlet is taken into account in this case. A heat transfer coefficient value for fruitlet, h = W/m 2 K is used as initial value for estimation of heat transfer coefficient for fresh fruit bunch. [6] The Prandtl number can be calculated as per below The thermal properties are evaluated at free stream temperature, in this case, the saturated steam at 2.6 bar g of 140 C saturation temperature. In this case, we assumed that the Prandtl number is the same for both fruitlet and fresh fruit bunch since the pressure and temperature is assumed to be about the same. The value obtained falls within the correlation constraint. As for the Reynold number, the calculation which involves the velocity of steam coming into contact with the fresh fruit bunch is rather difficult due to lack of instrumentation during the experiment. The initial steam flow into the sterilization chamber could be highly turbulent due to high steam velocity followed later by laminar flow when the velocity drops due to low pressure differential between the incoming steam pressure and the sterilizer chamber pressure [7]. Therefore, it is assumed that the value of Re falls within the correlation constraint due to the laminar flow during part of the heating process. The ratio of Nusselt number for both fruitlet and fresh fruit bunch was determined as per reduced equation below:
4 28 Arif bin Ab Hadi et al, 2015 In this case, the diameter variable for FFB for Nusselt number in the denominator is assumed to be 10 times greater than the size of fruitlet, which is about 30cm diameter for FFB and 3 cm diameter for fruitlet. The terms of Prandtl number, dynamic viscosity, density and velocity and including diameter coefficient were simplified based on equation above. The value of Re number in the correlation constraint is assumed to be at the maximum limit of in order for the correlation to be valid and accurate, which then the ratio becomes Hence, the initial value for heat transfer coefficient for fruitlet was substituted in the above equation which gave the estimated value of heat transfer coefficient for fresh fruit bunch as per below = W/m 2 K Heat Transfer Equation In The Numerical Calculation: The temperatures for all nodes are solved by applying the derived energy equations depending on the boundary conditions for each case node [8]. The appropriate equation was assigned to each node accordingly. The temperature node (T8, T9, T10, T11, T14, T15, T16, T17, T20, T21, T22, T23, T26, T27, T28, T29) is calculated using the following equation Fig. 2: Temperature setup for interior node The temperature node at plane surface (T2, T3, T4, T5, T7, T12, T13, T18, T19, T24, T25, T30, T32, T33, T34, T35) is calculated using the following equation m 0.3m m Fig. 3: Temperature setup for node at plane surface
5 29 Arif bin Ab Hadi et al, 2015 The temperature node at exterior corner (T1, T6, T31, T36) is calculated using the following equation Fig. 4: Temperature setup for node at exterior corner The stability of numerical solution for a steady state value of the nodal temperature based on explicit method is dependent on the stability criterion called Fourier number, Fo [8]. The limiting factor which is Fourier number is used to determine the maximum allowable value of t. A violation of this criterion will result in instability of solution, causing erroneous results. In this case, the most stringent value of Fo is selected based from the equations for all node cases. Data Used For Model Simulation And Model Validation: The FFB raw temperature data gathered at the mill inside sterilizer cage measured using temperature sensor located in between the FFB bunches which represents heating steam temperature, T for the model. A set of estimated initial data for the model is tabulated as per Table 3. Table 3: Estimated initial parameters for model FFB density, ρ (kg/m3) 992 FFB Specific Heat,Cp (kj/kgk) 2816 Distance between node, dx (m) Bunch Volume Equivalent Radius (m) Bunch Initial Temperature ( C) 30 Sterilization time (s) 4800 FFB thermal conductivity, k (W/mK) FFB thermal diffusivity, α (m2/s) x 10-7 Convective Heat Transfer Coefficient, h (W/m2K) 4250 Selected dt (s) 5 Biot number, Bi Fourier number, Fo The bunch size is taken as average 17kg with equivalent radius of m. The initial temperature was set at 30 C. The sterilization period is set accordingly for duration of 80 minutes for one sterilization cycle. The initial value of thermal diffusivity, Biot and Fourier number were calculated accordingly. The condensing steam that causes a continuous liquid film to be formed over the bunch and other factors such as air occluded inside bunch will have an impact towards effectiveness of heat transfer towards FFB, specifically thermal conductivity, k value of fresh fruit bunch. Hence, a correction factor for effective thermal conductivity of FFB, k eff is introduced. The values of heat transfer coefficient for fresh fruit bunch, together with thermal conductivity were used as an initial guess to determine the initial temperature profile for fresh fruit bunch during sterilization process. The result was then compared with the experimental data from Mongana report [1], experimental Ang et al data obtained from Chan SY studies [2] together with the modeling by Chan SY [2]. The values were adjusted and the model is tested again until the simulated data were closest to the experimental data. The data used for model validation is represented as per Table 4. The temperature data from Mongana report was based on 17kg bunch, triple peak sterilization and thermocouple inserted into FFB rachis (stalk) [1] while the data taken from Chan SY and Ang et al was based on thermocouple inserted into a hole drilled near or beside stalk. [2]
6 30 Arif bin Ab Hadi et al, 2015 Table 4: Temperature data based on Mongana Report and Modeling by Chan SY RESULT AND DISCUSSION Based on the numerical solution from the model, the temperature profile at the center of FFB obtained for temperature node location (T1 Z1) based on initial and adjusted value of thermal conductivity is shown as per Figure 5. The temperature profile at the top location of the cage, which represents the heating steam temperature is chosen for model validation. Fig. 5: Temperature profile at T1 Z1 node location (before and after adjustment) Fig. 6: Finite Difference Time Step Iteration (T1 Z1) excel calculation sheet chart (before adjustment)
7 31 Arif bin Ab Hadi et al, 2015 Fig. 7: Finite Difference Time Step Iteration (T1 Z1) excel calculation sheet chart (after adjustment) Figure 6 and 7 shows the finite difference time step iteration (T1 Z1) temperature node location using excel calculation sheet chart before and after adjustment of thermal conductivity value, respectively. Based on the results, we observe that the temperature profile hardly shown any increase until the end of sterilization period prior to adjusting the thermal conductivity value of overall fresh fruit bunch, k = W/mK. After a few numbers of runs, it was found that the experimental data was best represented by the model with adjusted value of effective thermal conductivity, k eff = 8.7 W/mK which is approximately 17 times the overall FFB thermal conductivity, k = W/mK. The ratio of estimated theoretical value of thermal conductivity of overall fresh fruit bunch, k = W/mK as compared to condensed steam, k = W/mK at 140 C and air, k = W/mK at 140 C [3] is approximately 17 times. Most of the steam condensate formed had to flow down by gravity. The flowing condensate might cause a continuous liquid film to be formed over the bunch. Therefore the effect of this liquid film on the heat transfer should not be overlooked. This explains the possible reason for the effective thermal conductivity value, k eff = 8.7 W/mK to be approximately 17 times that of estimated theoretical value, k = W/mK for overall fresh fruit bunch. Similar adjustments were made accordingly by Chan SY [2] for effective fruitlet thermal conductivity, k eff = 4 W/mK as compared to theoretical value, k = W/mK by taking into account the effect of this liquid film towards heat transfer. The convective heat transfer coefficient, h was set as high as possible at 4250 W/m2K in order to best suit the experimental data.

8 32 Arif bin Ab Hadi et al, 2015 Figure 8 shows a comparison between the result obtained for the FFB center temperature profile from the model in this study with the temperature data from Mongana Report together with FFB modeling temperature profile Chan SY modeling result. The correlation coefficient, R, which indicates the strength and direction of a linear relationship between two variables together with the coefficient of determination, R 2 value which indicates ability of the regression line to represent the experimental data was determined from an excel program data analysis under regression analysis. The variable input for the analysis was set to be the temperature profile obtained from spreadsheet modeling and experimental data from Mongana Report, Chan SY and Ang et al. The calculated value for correlation coefficient, R and coefficient of determination, R 2 between the temperature profile obtained from spreadsheet modeling and experimental data from Mongana Report is R = and R 2 = which indicate a very strong linear correlation between experimental and spreadsheet modeling data and indicates how well the experimentally determined data can be represented by the modeling data. The calculated values for R and R 2 between the spreadsheet data and Chan SY model data and Ang et al experimentally data were R = , R 2 = and R = 0.997, R 2 = , respectively. This also indicates strong linear correlation and a very high agreement between the spreadsheet data and Chan SY model data and Ang et al experimental data. Conclusion: Based on the result obtained, it is clear that the model is capable of predicting the temperature profile inside fresh fruit bunch (FFB) during sterilization process at almost 100% certainty based on the results of determined correlation coefficient, R and correlation of determination, R 2 value. This spreadsheet tool can be used in conjunction with temperature distribution studies to estimate the amount of heat transfer and steam consumption together with analyzing the significance of changes in the operating conditions such as heating steam temperature, sterilization period, different FFB weight etc. REFERENCES [1] Mongana Report, First Volume.
