Study Notes
Introduction to Food Physics - Chapter 4: Thermal Properties
- This chapter covers thermal properties applicable in food processing.
- Key learning outcomes include explaining thermal properties, principles, and laws, along with solving problems related to food thermal properties.
- Applications in the food industry involve various heat transfer calculations, equipment design, process time estimation, microbial inactivation, thermal processing of foods/beverages, and process control optimization.
Temperature
- Zeroth law of thermodynamics governs thermal contact, equilibrium.
- Thermal equilibrium implies no net heat exchange between objects at the same temperature.
- Temperature scales exist, and unit conversions are essential.
Thermal Equilibrium
- If two systems are each in thermal equilibrium with a third, they are in thermal equilibrium with each other.
- This principle is fundamental to temperature measurement and understanding heat transfer.
Temperature Scales
- The text discusses Kelvin as the absolute temperature scale, as well as the conversion of units between different temperature scales.
Thermal Properties in Food Processing
- Calculations for heat transfer are needed for storage, refrigeration, freezing, heating, drying, microbial inactivation, and other thermal processing methods.
- These calculations help optimize food processing procedures.
- Various models exist to estimate specific heat capacity in different food types.
- Techniques for specific heat measurements or proximate analysis methods are used.
Heat Capacity
- Heat capacity is a material's ability to hold and store heat.
- The amount of energy required to change the temperature of the material by 1°C (or 1 K) defines heat capacity.
- Calculating specific heat capacity can aid in understanding required energy for heating/cooling processes.
- Various food models or equations aid in calculating specific heat in food products in specific conditions.
- Specific heat capacity values are essential for different materials in thermal calculations.
Specific Heat Capacity of Food
- Specific heat capacity of frozen or unfrozen food vary.
- A larger decrease in specific heat occurs as temperatures decrease for frozen foods.
- The latent heat from temperature change and fusion of water must be considered at freezing points.
Specific Heat Measurement Techniques
- Proximate analysis methods include measuring water content, fat, protein, fiber, carbohydrates, and minerals to determine specific heat using models.
- Calorimetry is a direct technique for measuring heat exchange.
- Measuring calorimeter can determine unknown specific heat of materials.
