The thermal conductivity of both pulps as a function of frozen water fraction and temperature was also investigated by using a coaxial dual-cylinder apparatus. Thermal conductivity above the initial freezing point was well fitted by polynomial equations. Below the freezing point, the thermal conductivity was strongly affected by both the frozen water fraction and temperature. Simple equations in terms of frozen water fraction and temperature could be fitted to the experimental data of freezing point depression and thermal conductivity.73-84engFreezing point depressionFruit pulpsThermal conductivityFreezingFruitsFrozen water fractionPapayaPulpMangiferaMelting PointPulpsThermal ConductivityCarica papayaArtigo10.1080/10942910600744007Acesso restrito2-s2.0-3384710986094570810881081680000-0002-2553-4629
