The implementation of early-stage simulation tools, specifically
computational fluid dynamics (CFD), is an international and
interdisciplinary trend that allows engineers to computer-test
concepts all the way through the development of a process or
system. With the enhancement of computing power and efficiency, and
the availability of affordable CFD packages, the applications of
CFD have extended into the food industry for modeling industrial
processes, performing comprehensive analyses, and optimizing the
efficiency and cost effectiveness of the new processes and systems.
Beginning a new series dedicated to contemporary, up-to-date food
engineering practices, Computational Fluid Dynamics in Food
Processing is the first book of its kind to illustrate the use of
CFD for solving heat and mass transfer problems in the food
industry. Using a computational grid, CFD solves governing
equations that describe fluid flow across each grid cell by means
of an iterative procedure in order to predict and visualize the
profiles of velocity, temperature, pressure, and other parameters.
Starting with an overview of CFD technology and applications, the
book illustrates the use of CFD for gaining a qualitative and
quantitative assessment of the performance of processes involving
heat and mass transfer. Specific chapters cover airflow in
refrigerated trucks, retail display cabinets, microwaves, and
doorways; velocity in meat dryers and spray drying; thermal
sterilization; plate heat exchangers; membrane separation systems;
jet impingement ovens; food extrusion and high-pressure processing;
prediction of hygiene; design of biosensors; and the fermentation
of tea and ripening of cheese. Drawing from an esteemed panel of
international professionals and academics, this groundbreaking
bookprovides engineers and technologists in research, development,
and operations with critical, comprehensive, and readily accessible
information on the art and science of CFD technology.
