Zusammenfassung:A temperature control system for maintaining a food product at an acceptable temperature having a pan with a thermally conductive wall, a first member surrounding the thermally conductive wall, and a channel being formed between the first member and the thermally conductive wall. The temperature control system has a fluid in the channel for contacting the pan at a first location and a refrigeration coil being connected to a portion of the thermally conductive wall for cooling the pan. The temperature control system further has a second member for surrounding a first portion of the thermally conductive wall. The second member and the fluid maximize heat transfer at a first portion of the thermally conductive wall. The second member minimizes heat transfer at a second location of the thermally conductive wall.
