The importance of heating or cooling in situations of
this nature has led to publication of a large number
of methods for predicting the manner in which
temperature changes with time within the solids.
Whilst calculation methods using repeated iterations
by computers are in theory capable of providing
precise solutions, so often the uncertainties in the
heat transfer parameters (thermal properties.
knowledge of initial temperature distributions and of
surface heat transfer coefficients) make such
apparent precision illusory. Where experiments have
been conducted under carefully controlled
laboratory conditions, agreement of better than
-I-10% has been obtained with these methods. 3's
However the need for predictions extends beyond
the research laboratory. Often these need not be
highly precise, indeed they cannot be, as insufficient
is known about some of the finer details. Therefore
it is still worthwhile to produce simple methods,
applicable by hand calculator to an accuracy
commensurate with the available data which is often
around + 1 0 %
Despite many publications there seems to be no
method available which sufficiently reconciles this
simplicity, breadth of application, and adequate
precision, to be widely adopted.
Previous attempts to develop such a method have
been published by Pflug et al. 12 and Smith et al. 13'14
The former considered only simple geometric shapes
(slabs, cylinders, spheres and shapes formed by their
intersection), whereas the latter defined a geometric
factor approximating ellipsoidal shapes to spheres. A
method that would be widely used by the industrial
food engineer would preferably cover wide ranges
of conditions and geometric shapes, yet still be
simple. Neither method completely meets these
criteria, although that of Smith et al. is more widely
applicable. However a different alignment chart is
required for each value of their geometric index. 4

Applications
The method has been designed so that it can be
widely applied to practical solid heating or cooling
problems. The concept of the EHTD makes these
unsteady state heat conduction processes easy to
understand. Its simplicity is illustrated in the
following example.
