Abstract

Heat transfer involves the flow of thermal energy between objects due to temperature differences. It is an integral part of food processing and preservation techniques. Heating to make foods easier to digest and safe to eat has been practiced since time immemorial. It also helps extend their shelf life and makes them taste better. To achieve this, food processes require that heat be transferred into and out of the food. Some examples include:
