Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A computational model based on the finite element method was established for predicting the temperature distributions in food by coupling an analysis of the electromagnetic field and heat transfer. The heating characteristics of the domestic flatbed microwave oven were investigated by observing the temperature distributions in different foods. The predicted temperature results agreed well with the experimental results. The microwave cooking process was simulated via the computational model. On the basis of simulated temperature profiles and the parameters deduced from DSC experimental data, the time-dependent degrees of protein denaturation during cooking were estimated. The temperature and denaturation information were finally animated so that they could be investigated easily. On the other hand, also in the analysis of the microwave rice cooking process, an analysis method of heating process was established for (a mixture of water and rice) and (a mixture of air and rice)systems.
