Numerical investigation of coupled heat-mass transfer and expansion in wheat starch-gluten systems during microwave processing: Role of power and initial moisture [PDF]
Microwave heating is favored in wheat-based food processing for its rapid and selective heating, high efficiency, and environmental benefits, yet it often suffers from non-uniform temperature distribution.

Study on Moisture Phase Changes in Bread Baking Using a Coupling Model [PDF]
Moisture phase change (MPC), a key process in bread baking, significantly impacts heat and mass transfer, as confirmed by experiments. However, existing models poorly characterize this phenomenon, and its quantitative impact on baking needs systematic ...

Modeling of shallow, horizontal, unsaturated, ground-based heat exchangers with consideration of dry zone formation [PDF]
High fluid temperatures in ground-based heat exchangers (GHXs) during the cooling season may result in a decrease in thermal conductivity of adjacent backfill (λbackfill), potentially causing degradation in the performance efficiency of the GHX system ...

Ground-Coupled Heat and Moisture Transfer From Buildings: Part 2 — Application [PDF]
Abstract In this paper the effects of moisture on the heat transfer from two basic types of building foundations, a slab-on-grade and a basement, are examined. A two-dimensional finite element heat and moisture transfer program is used to show the effects of precipitation, soil type, foundation insulation, water table depth, and freezing
