frying is an important unit operation used widely both in domestic and industrial cooking. reduced pressure (vacuum), microwave, deep fat and pan frying are the most important methods of food frying. final product has good organoleptic quality (colour, texture, and flavour). the accuracy of the knowledge of mass transfer parameters (effective diffusivity coefficient, dimensionless biot number a...

Numerical simulation of the steady, laminar, forced convection heat transfer in the finned annulus is carried out for the case of fully developed incompressible flow corresponding to thermal boundary condition of uniform heat input per unit axial length with peripherally uniform temperature at any cross section. Boundary fitted curvilinear coordinates are used to overcome the singularities, bei...

Bubble columns are gas- liquid contactors that are widely used in chemical and bio- chemical industries. High mixing that result in high heat and mass transfer rates are amongst their advantages. Heat transfer in a bubble column having a bundle of heaters investigated and the variation of heat transfer coefficient with variation in heaters pitch to diameter ratios in a bundle of heaters reporte...

the binding, release and oxidation of oxygen occur at the heme group iron ion. hemoglobinoxidation-reduction studies have been previously performed using spectroelectrochemistry (sec) andhave provided insight into the hemoglobin electron transfer process and more specifically, into theheme group electronic factor and subunit interaction influences. in this study, the number of fullerenecarbon a...

The present study attempts to improve heat transfer efficiency of a domestic gas burner by enhancing heat transfer from flue gases. Heat transfer can be augmented using the obstacles that are inserted into the flow field near the heated wall of the domestic gas burner. First, to achive the maximum efficiency, the insert geometry is optimized by the multi-objective genetic algorithm so that heat...
