Abstract
The heat transfer which occurs during the brining of Cuartirolo Argentino cheese is mathematically modelled as a conduction process. The thermal diffusivity of the cheese was determined experimentally and shown to agree with the value calculated from thermal conductivity, density and heat capacity measurements. The theoretical and experimental temperature profiles in the time and spatial domains showed good agreement, thus demonstrating the applicability of the proposed model.
