A case study on the thermal energy analysis was performed for selected dairy products at commercial dairy plant. The purpose of the analysis was to determine the thermal energy usage in the processing line. This will ultimately leads to ensure efficient process with his her productivity and to improve productivity. Engineering services in dairy plants are considered as the area where simple plant optimization measures can lead to substantial and almost immediate savings. In general dairy plant is considered as the heat and mass transfer industry where thermal energy is the main energy utilized for dairy processing. In dairy processing plant, steam was utilized in liquid milk processing, cream pasteurization, cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, paneer, ice cream, basundi and ghee processes were found as 1.46, 3.00, 46.66, 87.21, 81.71, 8.83, 88.72, and 64.62 kg per 100 kg product, respectively and condensate losses were 7.25, 7.96, 6.97, 7.14, 7.25, 6.06, 9.52, and 6.88 per cent, respectively of the total heat per 100 kg product processing.
