What are the thermal properties of ice cream?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on the thermal properties of ice cream, including thermal diffusivity, specific heat, and melting rate. Participants inquire about methods to calculate these properties without specialized equipment and seek resources such as journals or laboratories in the Philippines for further study. It is noted that ice cream is a complex mixture, requiring multiple components to achieve its characteristic texture. A link to a relevant research paper is shared to aid in understanding these properties. Overall, the conversation highlights the interest in the scientific study of ice cream's thermal characteristics.

what are the possible ways to calculate thermal diffusivity, specific heat, melting rate and other thermal properties of ice cream that does not need any equipment?
 
or Does anyone in here know any laboratory in the Philippines that measures the thermal properties of a specific food?
 
Have you tried Google?

Ice cream is not one specific mixture. It is a fairly broad class of multi component emulsion/colloid substances. At least 4 individual materials are necessary to get you to anywhere near an ice cream like substance.

Good question. Everybody likes ice cream , but I haven't yet thought about its properties that make it frozen. :P Thank you.
