Using cooling tunnels, batch and continuous process systems may reduce the temperature under control. They resemble convection ovens but lack the ability to heat. Blowers are used in cooling tunnels to push outside air or ambient air into the tunnel while pulling hot air from the components out the other end.

The utility of food cooling tunnels

Food cooling tunnels are used to process huge amounts of jam, jelly, and drinks as well as other prepared foods such as meat, poultry, fish, vegetables, fruits, pastries, and pasta. Their primary responsibility is to prevent product weight loss.

The use of a cooling tunnel is a method of food processing that is particularly effective in maximizing productivity.
