Learning Outcomes
1Lecture, student assignments, class presentations and discussions.
2Students will understand general knowledge of heat transfer (conduction, convection, radiation) and mass transfer (diffusion, convective mass transfer).
3Students will apply empirical correlations for both forced and free convection to determine values for the convection heat transfer coefficient. They will then calculate heat transfer rates using the coefficients.
4During the preservation of foodstuffs, heat and mass transfer applications are essential in order to achieve best quality product. Students will be able to the heat and mass transfer knowledge to handle current applications or to define novel designs of processes.
5Students will understand, and be able to apply food engineering concepts in the core area of heat and mass transfer.
