have high surface area per unit volume, thus resulting in a more rapid
heating of the slowest heating point when compared with cylindrical
cans. Among various geometric shapes, a sphere has the largest sur-
face-area-to-volume ratio.

1.1
The following unit conversions are illustrations of the SI sys-
tem of units. Convert:
a. a thermal conductivity value of 0.3 Btu/(h ft °F) to W/
(m °C)
b. a surface heat transfer coefficient valu
to W/(m2 "C)
c. a latent heat of fusion value of 121 Btu,

An empty metal can is heated to 90°C and sealed. It is then
placed in a room to cool to 20°C. What is the pressure inside
the can upon cooling? Assume that can contains air under
ideal conditions.

1.3 A food is initially at a moisture content of 90% dry basis.
Calculate the moisture content in wet basis.
1.4 10 kg of food at a moisture content of 320% dry basis is dried
to 50% wet basis. Calculate the amount of water removed.
A batch of 5 kg of food product has a moisture content of 150%
dry basis. Calculate how much water must be removed from
this product to reduce its moisture content to 20% wet basis.

1.6 A liquid product with 10% product solids is blended with
sugar before being concentrated (removal of water) to obtain
a final product with 15% product solids and 15% sugar solids.
Determine the quantity of final product obtained from 200 kg
of liquid product. How much sugar is required? Compute
mass of water removed during concentration.
1.7 A food product is being frozen in a system capable of
removing 6000 kJ of thermal energy. The product has a specific
heat of 4 kl/(kg °C) above the freezing temperature of -2°C,
the latent heat of fusion equals 275 kJ/kg, and the frozen
product has a specific heat of 2.5 kJ/(kg°C) below – 2°C. If
10 kg of product enters the system at 10°C, determine the exit
temperature of the product.
1.8 A liquid food product is being cooled from 80°C to 30°C in an
indirect heat exchanger using cold water as a cooling medium.
If the product mass flow rate is 1800 kg/h, determine the water
flow rate required to accomplish product cooling if the water
is allowed to increase from 10°C to 20°C in the heat exchanger.
The specific heat of the product is 3.8 kJ/(kg K) and the value
for water is 4.1 kJ/(kg K).
Milk is flowing through a heat exchanger at a rate of 2000 kg/h.
The heat exchanger supplies 111,600 kJ/h. The outlet temperature
of the product is 95°C. Determine the inlet temperature of the
milk. The product specific heat is 3.9 kJ/(kg °C).

A steel bucket contains 4 liters of water at 12°C. An electric
immersion heater rated at 1400 Watts is placed in the bucket.
Determine how long it will take for water to heat to 70°C.
Assume that the empty bucket weighs 1.1 kg. The specific heat
of steel is 0.46 kJ/(kg°C). Use an average specific heat of water
of 4.18 kJ/(kg°C). Disregard any heat loss to the surroundings.
