Forced-air cooling – fans used in conjunction with a cooling
room to pull cool air through packages of produce.
Although the cooling rate depends on the air
temperature and the rate of airflow, this method is
usually 75 to 90% faster than simple room cooling.
Design considerations for a variety of small- and
large-scale units are available in Commercial Cooling
of Fruit, Vegetables, and Flowers (ANR Publication
21567).
