- Intervention effect Hot water treatment required 50%-60% as long as hot air for the same melon heating effect.
- Observation The optimum medium velocity for hot water treatment was 0.5-1 m/s.
- Observation The optimum medium velocity for hot air treatment was 1.5-2 m/s.
- Intervention effect Hot water treatment reduced muskmelon tissue weight loss.
- Intervention effect High humidity hot air treatment reduced muskmelon tissue weight loss.
- Intervention effect Grading melons by fruit size improved heat-treatment uniformity.
