Energy and power for heating or cooling water, juice, milk or oil in a given time; approximate steam consumption.
Approximate calculation using a simplified model: for designing equipment and process modes, consult a technologist.
Calculates the thermal energy and power needed to heat or cool water, juice, milk or oil in a given time, taking heater efficiency into account.
For juices the specific heat is substituted by Brix. For heating, the approximate consumption of saturated steam is also shown. Losses in pipes and the tank are not taken into account.
The calculations are approximate: they help to assess the process and compare options, but do not replace a process design and trials on a specific raw material. This section is for reference only and contains no commercial offers.
