• Novel Use of Effusivity as Predictor of Granulation Endpoint

  A 3^3–1 -fractional factorial experimental design was used to elucidate the use of effusivity in predicting wet granulation end-point in high-shear mixers. Power consumption was also monitored and...

• Monitoring the Fat Content of Milk with Modified Transient Plane Source Technique Results

  The thermal conductivity measurement in the food industry provides insight into the heat transfer properties of foods – important in the design of processing and preservation equipment. In the...

• PAT for Drying

  Vendors, manufacturers team up to roll out the latest in mass and NIR spectrometers, effusivity sensors and other PAT-worthy technologies.

• Standard Test Method for the Measurement of Thermal Effusivity of Raw and Process Materials

  This standard describes the method of use for a PAT system to measure a physical property (effusivity) that has practical application in monitoring blending (uniformity and lubrication), drying,...

• Implementation of Thermal Effusivity Tool for Drying Endpoint Determination

  Thermal effusivity relates to a material’s ability to transfer heat. It is demonstrated when you touch a piece of metal with one hand while you touch a piece of foam with the other. Despite being...

• Effusivity as a PAT to Optimize, Monitor and Control Fluid Bed Drying

  This paper points out the advantages and disadvantages of several drying monitoring techniques and examines thermal effusivity measurements as an alternative within a PAT framework.

• Measure Thermal Properties of Liquids in Seconds

  The Mathis TC-30 is helping researchers accelerate the thermal characterization of liquids and pastes, as well as powders and solids. For process design, kinetic studies and liquid materials...
