Computational Fluid Dynamics in Food Processing

Since many processes in the food industry involve fluid flow and heat and mass transfer, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) provides a powerful early-stage simulation tool for gaining a qualitative and quantitative assessment of the performance of food processing, allowing engineers to test concepts all the way through the development of a process or system.

Published in 2007, the first edition was the first book to address the use of CFD in food processing applications, and its aims were to...
