The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of different ventilation systems in two aging cells. One cell featured transverse airflow starting from the top, while the other had a dual-flow system with vertical air motion from top to bottom and vice versa. In addition to monitoring weight loss during aging, chemical and physical analyses were conducted on various salamis to assess the influence of ventilation both between the two aging cells and among different positions of the salamis within the same cell. It was found that the dual-evaporator (DEV) cell behaved better than transverse flow (TFL) cell.
