Modelling of rheological behaviour of pummelo juice concentrates using master-curve

The rheological behaviour of freeze-dried-concentrated pummelo juice was modelled to investigate the effects of temperature and concentration on its fluid type and viscosity using a rotational viscometer at shear rates ranging from 1 to 400 s-1. The effect of concentration measured by its total solu...

description The rheological behaviour of freeze-dried-concentrated pummelo juice was modelled to investigate the effects of temperature and concentration on its fluid type and viscosity using a rotational viscometer at shear rates ranging from 1 to 400 s-1. The effect of concentration measured by its total soluble solids content resulted in the juice concentrates behaving towards shear thinning or pseudoplastic behaviour with flow behaviour index values, n<1. Temperature increase from 6 to 75°C produced a reversing effect of the shear thinning behaviour from the increase of n values at all three investigated concentrations, 20, 30 and 50°Brix. The consistency coefficient decreases with temperature but increases with total soluble solid contents. Modelling the rheological behaviour of pummelo juice concentrates using the master-curve yielded results over a range of temperature to overlap on a single line, which allows generalisation of flow behaviour and characteristics. The master-curve plots confirmed that the juice viscosity and pseudoplasticity increase with concentration with high regression coefficients, R2>0.98.
