Abstract
An experimental study was made to study the cooling characteristics of O/W emulsion slurry. While the slurry is cooled down, the temperature of the sample in an agitated tank was measured by a thermocouple, and the distribution of diameter of the emulsion particles was measured from the pictures captured by a microscope. As the result, it was shown that the temperature history during the cooling has two distinct flat phases. Diameter of the emulsion has strong effect in the temperature of the flat phase, when the diameter is longer, the temperature becomes high.
