Overview

Transport phenomena is a branch of physics that deals with the transfer of mass, heat, and momentum. It is a fundamental science that has applications in many fields, including food engineering. Food engineers use transport phenomena to design and operate food processing equipment and systems, and to improve the quality and safety of food products.
