food product with 85% moisture content is being frozen. Estimate the specific heat of the product at -10°C when 80% of the water is in a frozen state. The specific heat of dry product solid is 2 kJ/(kg °C). Assume specific heat of water at -10°C is similar to specific heat of water at 0°C. And the heat of the types of ice follow the function of Cp ice = 0.0062 Tfrozen + 2.0649. Cp frozen product = ... kJ/kg °C.
