Arrhenius_iso: Isothermal Arrhenius model

In albgarre/bioinactivation: Mathematical Modelling of (Dynamic) Microbial Inactivation

Isothermal Arrhenius model

Description

Returns the predicted logarithmic reduction in microbial count according to Arrhenius model for the time, temperature and model parameters given.

Usage

Arrhenius_iso(time, temp, k_ref, temp_ref, Ea)

Arguments

time	numeric indicating the time at which the prediction is taken.
temp	numeric indicating the temperature of the treatment.
k_ref	numeric indicating the inactivation rate at the reference temperature.
temp_ref	numeric indicating the reference temperature.
Ea	numeric indicating the activation energy.

Value

A numeric with the predicted logarithmic reduction (log10(N/N0)).
