ABSTRACT:
In the present work, β-lactoglobulin fouling
phenomenon was studied, when milk flowed in a tubular
heat exchanger, where hot water was used to raise milk
temperature. Experiments have been carried out to
determine the effect of Reynolds number and fluid
temperature in whey protein fouling, in a tubular heat
exchanger and the results showed that fouling increases as
the fluid temperature increases. In addition, as the Reynolds
number increases, the total amount of fouling (obtained by
integrating the whole amount of deposit down the tube
dividing by the total area) decreased.
