Description
Preface.- Principles of thermal sterilization.- Heat transfer principles.- Thermal sterilization of food: Historical review.- Fundamentals of computational fluid dynamics.- Thermal sterilization of food in cans.- Temperature distribution in food pouches during thermal sterilization.- Bacteria deactivation in food pouches during thermal sterilization.- Vitamins destruction in food pouches during thermal sterilization.- Experimental measurements in pouches.- Appendices.- Index.
Examines the important interaction between fluid mechanics, heat transfer and microbial inactivation during sterilization of food in pouches. Such interaction is complex and if ignored would lead to incorrect information on food sterility, as well as on food quality. This work is useful for engineers, food scientists, students and researchers.
