Simple Mathematical Solutions of Problems Associated with Heat Sterilization of Milk

摘要

SUMMARYThree simple equations have been developed along with tabulated values that allow calculation of sterilizing time, sterilizing value, or heat penetration factor for a process when only two of the three are known. A short trial‐and‐error calculation can yield the retort temperature if other data are known. A mathematical derivation associated with the problem is included as an appen
