Effect of the rheological behavior of mango pulp (magífera indica L-Keitt)

The rheological behavior of mango pulp (Keitt) was measured in the temperature range 10-60°C. Whole pulp was produced in pilot plant and finished with 1,6 mm mash sieve. Rheometry was conducted in a Haake-Rotovisco RV-20 rheometer with concentric cylinders. Temperature effect on rheological parameters of consistency was fitted to the Arrhenius model: ln(K M) = A1 + B1/T. The flow behavior index for both power law and Mizrahi-Berk were fitted as: nM = A2 + B2T.
