Solving Problems in Food Engineering

Beschreibung

Solving Problems in Food Engineering is a step by step workbook intended to enhance students' understanding of complicated concepts and to help them practice solving food engineering problems. The book covers problems in fluid flow, heat transfer, mass transfer, and the most common unit operations that have applications in food processing, such as thermal processing, cooling and freezing, evaporation, psychrometrics and drying. Included are theoretical questions in the form of true or false, solved problems, semi-solved problems, and problems solved using a computer. The semi-solved problems guide students through the solution. Some of the problems progress from elementary level increasing difficulty so that the book is useful to food science as well as food engineering students.
About the Editor:
Stavros Yanniotis is an associate professor of food engineering in the Agricultural University of Athens' Department of Food Science & Technology.

This is a step-by-step workbook indented to help students practice solving food engineering problems. It is designed as an introduction to food engineering problems for those who have very little to no background in engineering. It deals with problems in fluid flow, heat transfer, mass transfer and the most common unit operations that find applications in food processing, i.e. thermal processing, cooling and freezing, evaporation, psychometrics and drying. It includes theoretical questions in the form true or false, solved problems, semi-solved problems and problems solved using a computer. Some of the problems are elementary but problems of increasing difficulty follow so that the book will be useful to food science and even to food engineering students.
