Abstract

Many processes in the food industry use heat transfer. Rather than describing these processes in detail, and thus becoming rapidly out of date whenever a new process is introduced or a modification developed, this book seeks to explain the principles underlying them. The concepts introduced in previous chapters, such as the ideas of heat transfer as a set of sequential steps, of residence time distributions, and of fluid flows, will be applied here to the study of real systems.
