Deals with mathematical/computer simulation of food and bioprocesses associated with fluid flow, heat and mass transfer, internal heat generation due to biological activity and electromagnetic field treatment, and quality kinetics. Important optimization techniques will be introduced to design food processes with better energy efficiency/productivity and less quality degradation. Weekly hours: 2.5 Lecture hours and 1.5 Practicum/Lab hoursNote: Students with credit for ABE 811 will not receive credit for this course.
