I want to calculate heat load for 30000 kg of chocolate material to be cooled from 48 to 38 degree Celsius .Find out total heat load & cooling capacity required in TR.😕

I think, you will require specific heat at constant pressure or specific heat at constant volume, depending on your process. 😀
Why not try to calculate the work and heat through thermodynamic relations for your cooling process ? 😀

Insufficient data. Unless the time within which this cooling has to be achieved is known calculation is not possible.

It will also depend on the flow rate. A low flow rate on the "hot side" of a heat exchanger will result in a lot of heat being taken out providing that you have sufficient cooling available (e.g. cold water at a fast flow rate)
