In most indirect heating pasteurizers, extra energy is spent for secondary coolants transportation and heat loss through the pipeline surface thus resulting in low efficiency and high power consumption. Induction heating is characterized by heat release in the heated bodies enabling them to transmit more power and to get high thermal efficiency due to heat generation only in the portions of the required volumes. The purpose of this study is to determine geometric dimensions of the elements of a rational induction heater for a given heat output and to ensure uniform heating of milk over the cross section of the heater.
