Temperature Records Accurate: Defrosting Not Due to Temperature Fluctuations

The temperature trend is consistent when comparing the temperature charts provided by Barbuss, which only includes charts, with the temperature charts provided by our member. The overall temperature range is also similar. The temperatures from both sources support each other, indicating that the temperature records accurately reflect the actual temperature inside the container.

However, it is important to clarify that the opposing claim that temperature variations caused the cargo to defrost ('The Frozen Shrimps defrosted due to temperature deviations during transit') is unreasonable. Firstly, temperature variations are inevitable in refrigerated container transportation, as power interruptions during loading and unloading processes can cause temperature changes. Additionally, switching the container's refrigeration mode can also lead to temperature variations. Moreover, normal frozen shrimp transportation has not resulted in any damage.

Secondly, to our knowledge, there have been no experiments or research that have found temperature changes to necessarily cause cargo defrosting or damage. For example, blowing cold air at -20 degrees Celsius onto an ice block and suddenly changing it to -10 degrees Celsius will not change the state of the ice block. Similarly, blowing hot air above freezing for a short period of time will not change the state of the ice block.
