Book Description

The Book Tries To Make The Reader Understand The Food Processing Operations Through A Comprehensive Numerical Problem.Understanding Of The Operations Becomes Deeper When The Reader Solves The Exersise Problems Given Under Each Of The Operations. Answer To Most Of The Numerical Problems Have Been Provided In The Book. The Proposed Book Is Unique As It Includes (I) Comprehensive Numerical Problem Based On Actual Data Taken During Food Processing Operations (Ii) Mathematical Modelling Of The Processing Operations (Iii) Solutions Of The Numerical Problem Based On Mathematical Models Developed (Iv) Exersise Problems And (V) Inclusion Of Matlab Program In The Book. The Program Will Help The Reader To Find Out The Value Of The Responces As Affected By Varying The Independent Variables To Different Levels.Most Of The Materials Havebeen Class Tested Through The Teaching Of The Subjects. E.G., Food Processing Operations, Transfer Processes In Food Materials And Food Process Modelling And Evaluation.
