ABSTRACT
Now-a-day, the entire world is taking interest in herbal products. These products are perishable in nature & storage of
them required tremendous effect.
In cold storage plant, to store such products required lots of power consumption. The electrical energy is costlier & produced
using fossile fuel, which is one of the causes for pollution. In case of failure of power supply, the chances of distruction
of such commodity is possible therefore this recover of this problem on design of Wiped Film Evaporator with Computer
Aided Tools (CAE) for analysis of WFE for OSWAL INDUSTRIES LTD., BILESHWARPURA, DIST. MEHSANA
