The name Système International d'Unités (International System of Units) with the international
abbreviation SI is a single international language of science and technology first introduced in 1960
Density
The density of food sample is defined as its mass per
unit volume and is expressed3as kg /m
Mass ( kg)
Density =
Volume ( m 3 )
A1 V1 Q = A1 V1 = A2 V2 m 3 /sec
o
A 2 V 2 m = mass flow rate
o
m = Density x Volume flow rate
o
m = Q Kg /sec
Equation of Continuity
Example 1. Determine volumetric and mass flow rate of
water ( density = 1000 kg /m3) , the diameter of pipe is
10 cm.
v = 20 m/s
A=
D2 = 2
0.1 = 0.0078 m 2
4 4
3
Q = A V = 20 x 0.0078 = 0.156 m / sec
T ( oK ) = T ( oC ) + 273.15

Example2. How much 350 Kelvin degrees
would be in Fahrenheit degrees
Solution = 170.3 F
Solution = 288.7 K

MC db MC wb
Moisture content wet basis
Moisture content dry basis
MC wb = MC db
1 + MC db
Example 3. Covert a moisture content of 85 % wet
basis to moisture content dry basis
MC wb = 0.85
MC db = MC wb
From equation
1 - MC wb
MC db = 0.85
1 - 0.85
MC db = 5.67
= 567 % db
Example 4. A food is initially at moisture content of 90 %
dry basis . Calculate the moisture content in wet basis
MC db = 0.90
MC wb = MC db
1 + MC db
MC wb = 0.90
1 + 0.90
MC wb = 0.4736
= 47.36 % wb
Example 5. The 10 kg of food sample at a moisture
contents of 75 % wet basis
mass of water
% Wet basis =
mass of water +mass of dry solids
0.75
