Solving Problems in Food Engineering [With CDROM]

By Stavros Yanniotis

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.
