METHOD AND DEVICE FOR THE THERMAL TREATMENT OF FLUIDS COMPRISING A RAPID VAPOR CONDENSATION

摘要

The mass flow of the fluid is determined and are also determined the section of the chamber (10) wherein said fluid is mixed to the vapor and the section of the nozzle (14) through which passes the fluid to obtain thereafter in the latter a pressure drop sufficient to have all the injected vapor totally condensed, and low enough so that all the vapor required for the desired reheating may be injected. Preferably, the flow through the nozzle (14) takes place in critical conditions (cavitation). Application to the treatment of delicate products such as milk at very high temperatures within very short lapses of time.
