ABSTRACT
This paper entails the details involved in the application of the fluid flow theory in the food processing industry along with its implication and limitations. The fluid flow theory is very important in the food processing field as it involves transporting materials from one point to another, mixing of materials and aides in chemical reactions. Though beneficial to the food processing industry; however, there are varying and contributing factors which may limit its efficiency and efficacy. The fluid flow theory is the key technique behind many unit operations including cooling and heat transfer of food products in many production processes. The limiting factors affecting the rate at which the fluid flow theory may be applied will

Energy from other sources in pumps and fans are converted to pressure or velocity energy in the fluid. It also plays an important role in the production of fluid flow by the means of pumps and fans as pump efficiency is defined as the ratio of the energy supplied by the motor to the increase in velocity and pressure energy given in the fluid. It is important to produce and grasp measurements of pressures and velocities of the equipment as food technologists are more concerned about what class of pumps are used and their characteristics rather than the designed detail of the pump. The qualification of bulk fluid movement is also known as Flow Measurement. There are a variety of ways in which flow can be measured including the use of a positive-displacement meter which can accumulate a fixed volume of fluid before it calculates the number of time the volume is filled in order to measure flow. Another method relies solely on forces that are produced by the flowing stream as it overcomes a known constriction, which indirectly calculates the flow rate in the system. Flow can be measured by measuring velocity over a known area. Velocity of fluid flow is affected by the viscosity of the liquid. Newtonian and Non-Newtonian are terms that categorize the viscosity of fluid flow. A Newtonian fluids’ viscosity remains constant and they typically possess a linear relationship between viscosity and shear stress; hence application of increasing shear at constant temperature does not affect the viscosity of the fluid. Examples of Newtonian liquids are water, mineral oils, gasoline and
Our hypothesis was partially correct, the property changing substances did have the weakest coherency with the lowest drop counts of 23(carbonated), and 14(soap), and pure water did have the strongest bond. What we also found was the the salt also dampened the liquid’s ability to hold onto a penny in large volumes, as all the different salts had a drop average of 24(28x2 & 16), five less than Tap water’s drop count (30). This led us to conclude that pure water has the strongest bond and that all foreign materials weaken the coherency of water. This evidence has led me to believe that similar substances are attracted and are more coherent towards themselves, in this case the water pieces get separated and generally less connected on a really small level due to the obstruction of foreign objects, this is why the different salts perform better than the huge air bubbles or the slippery properties of soap since the latter is more obstructive and the former dissolves with the water and blocks less. When studying a few other groups’ conclusions and data we did indeed find differences: some groups had differing data where a solution had better coherence than water itself which led to differing conclusions.
It is something with blood on it that is moving, such as a victim or a blood-stained weapon. Low-velocity spatter is caused by gravity, such as dripping blood. It is the force of how the blood was dripping and hitting a surface is between 4 and 8mm. Medium-velocity spatter is caused by a blunt force. It is someone getting beaten with a butt of a gun, hammer, bat, etc.
Hero of Flight 90 In the article by Roger Rosenblatt, a man risked his life to save the other passengers in the freezing cold water of the Potomac River. In Time Magazine, the article summarizes the plane crash and the reason behind its significance. In 1982, Air Florida flight 90 crashed directly into a bridge located in Washington D.C.
Infer why the current that was created during this lab is called a convection current. Convection is the movement caused within a fluid when hotter, less dense water, moves upward, and colder, denser water, moves downward. I infer that the current that was created during this lab is called a convection current because the colder, denser water, moved beneath the hot water, causing the hot water to move upward. 4. How does this experiment demonstrate water density?
\section{Facility Static and Dynamic Control}\label{Calibr} The facility calibration is the transfer function between the oscillating gauge pressure $P_C(t)$ in the chamber (described in ~\autoref{Sub31}) and the liquid flow rate $q(t)$ in the distributing channel, i.e. the test section. Due to practical difficulties in measuring $q(t)$ within the thin channel, and being the flow laminar, this transfer function was derived analytically and validated numerically as reported in ~\autoref{Sub32} and ~\autoref{Sub33}. \subsection{Pressure Chamber Response}\label{Sub31} Fig.\ref{fig:2a} shows three example of pressure signals $P_C(t)$, measured in the pneumatic chamber.
Then the scientist will observe the different rates of reaction with temperature. The Boltzmann distribution of law, indicates that high temperature makes molecules gain high energy contents (pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/ja). In order to measure the reaction rate, the scientists must use the same volume of water at three different starting temperatures: hot tap
The film At the River I Stand was a very interesting film that went back to the civil rights movement and told the dream that Martin Luther King had and how his dream has come a long way. This film took place in 1968 in Memphis, TN. It focused on how African Americans were excluded out and were paid low wages and worked in poor working conditions. Not only did they go on strike to gain equality, but they also wanted to stand up for what’s right. Being though Martin Luther King was assassinated during this film, African Americans started more riots all over the country to fight for justice.
The Article “Finding Flow” by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, expresses the choice we have in life to live or die until the end of days. He shows how we take control of our own destiny, and to not let distractions get in the way of our accomplishment. Csikszentmihalyi portrays that everyone has a different idea of accomplishment and goals, but living life to the fullest is shared by many. By saying this he means don’t waste your potential by letting side issues get in the way. In the article Csikszentmihalyi mentions a study held in a factory where most welders hated their jobs and found no passion in it.
Oral culture as a method for retaining Aboriginal identity and rejecting assimilation through Thomas King’s “Green Grass Running Water”. Colonialism had a great effect on this history of Canada’s First Nation people. For Canada’s first known settlers, this relationship has push Aboriginals away and created a power struggle that has made their lives much more difficult. There is a low opportunity for education, many economic problems, high incarceration and removal of land. Through Christianity and political power, Canada’s aboriginals have shifted from being the First Nation citizen’s to becoming the marginalized ethnic group.
The mixture was then distilled. When the temperature was reached to about 59℃, half vial of distillate (1V) and 1 mL of the liquid residue (1L) were collected. For 61.0℃, the distillation was then continued. Samples (2V, 2L) were taken at about 61.0℃.
the Crude oil also known as petroleum. Crude oil composed naturally from that remaining part of plants and creatures that died millions years ago and fell underneath of the see. Unrefined (Crude oil) contain hydrocarbons and alkanes in it. The hydrocarbon indicates that crude oil only made of hydrogen and carbon atoms. The hydrocarbon has different structure (straight chains, branching, and rings).
Von Mises [3] states that “the forces due to viscosity appear as products of μ and expressions that have the dimensions area times (velocity / length)”. By further investigation, the mathematical analysis of these principles leads to a system of partial derivatives known as the Navier-Stokes equations. These equations are used to describe fluid flow and can be used to solve specific dynamic fluid flow cases. These include; velocities, pressure, temperature, density and can also be used to solve viscous problems of a dynamic fluid flow problems. These partial derivative equations relating to the specific variables are extremely complex and time-consuming to
It justifies the idea that increasing the concentration of sucrose does in fact speed up the rate of osmosis, an therefore increase the mass of the Visking tube. This happens due to the water molecules moving from a high water concentration to a low water concentration. Another reason why this hypothesis is correct is because sucrose particles are too large to go through the membrane therefore the sucrose does not diffuse into the water. According to the mean graph there is a clear outline that indicates constant acceleration, which justifies that the increase of the independent variable affects the dependent
Abstract — This experiment was conducted to familiarize the students with the procedures regarding distillation—to be more precise, the separation of ethanol from an alcoholic beverage—using a distillation set-up consisting of boiling chips, a Bunsen burner, a condenser, a thermometer and several other materials. In the end, it was discovered that one may actually separate a homogeneous mixture, given that the components of said mixture differ in volatility and that they utilize a complete distillation set-up and follow laboratory safety rules and regulations. Keywords — Matter, homogeneous and hetereogeneous mixtures, distillation, volatility, boiling point I. INTRODUCTION There are typically two categories of matter, these are pure substances
As mentioned by Casper (2007), ‘Cold Chain Logistics deals with the production, processing, packaging station, cold storage warehouses, transportation, distribution centres, retailer, end consumer and in the user household refrigerators of products from the manufacture to the customer that are temperature sensitive.’ In this thesis, we are mainly concerned
