In this very general title, we first need to define what a fluid is.
In the following, the term "alimentary fluid" refers to a material that flows under its own weight and is incapable of recovering its initial shape on its own.
Although food fluids are extremely common in everyday life, they are nonetheless among the most complex products to study. For example, some products are solid at a certain temperature and liquid at a higher one (butter, ice cream, etc.). Others are suspensions of solids in a continuous fluid phase (tomato sauce, purée, fruit yoghurt, etc.). In other cases, fine droplets are dispersed in a continuous, immiscible liquid phase (milk, sauces, etc.).
The history of the product must also be taken into account, i.e. the physico-chemical and mechanical treatments...
