Experimental simulation of the external forced convection on the outside of grape packages was performed. Average heat transfer coefficients for air flow around such containers were found to range from 8 to 13.4 W/(m[sup 2]K). A physical description of the convective process was formulated on the basis of data obtained in three types of experiment. Expressions for the average heat transfer coefficient from single packages in air flow were proposed.
