CHAPTER 3 Energy and Controls in Food Processes

Sommario/riassunto

This fourth edition of this successful textbook succinctly presents the engineering concepts and unit operations used in food processing, in a unique blend of principles with applications.  Depth of coverage is very high.  The authors use their many years of teaching to present food engineering concepts in a logical progression that covers the standard course curriculum.  Both are specialists in engineering and world-renowned.  Chapters describe the application of a particular principle followed by the quantitative relationships that define the related processes, solved examples and problems t
