Summary

This lab manual covers both principles and laboratory applications of food process engineering. * Complete step-by-step procedures for laboratory experiment * Thorough description of necessary equipment, including proper operating procedures * Work-out examples provided for important calculations (e.g., Poisson ratio, flex modulus, lethal rate, etc.) * Several computer simulation tests provided and information on use of computer spreadsheets is also provided * Each experiment is preceded by questions and objectives; each experiment followed by data analysis and interpretation for a complete treatment
