Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to understand a simmering process of food stuff in a liquid, investigations are performed based on a multi-scale porous model that configurations and placements of food stuff are considered to be like a submerged porous medium with a larger characteristic scale, while each food stuff is a porous medium with a finer characteristic scale. A full three-dimensional numerical analysis is performed in a cylindrical coordinate system under a non-equilibrium thermal boundary condition that a constant heat flux is given in a rig region at the bottom and otherwise adiabatic. It is found that there is a critical Darcy number for which a thermal convection is most prevailed. This enables us to determine a suitable scale of food stuff and volumetric ratio between a liquid and food stuff for energy saving cookery.
