An analytical method for determining the heat transfer coefficients of food products being cooled in water and in air flows is presented. Food products are idealized as geometrical solid objects of regular shapes. New correlations between heat transfer coefficients and cooling coefficients are devel

β¦ Synopsis
A two-dimensional two-phase model of temperature and moisture distribution during cooling and storage of agricultural products in a cylindrical container is developed. In the model equations the influence of air flow by natural convection is incorporated. The agreement of model calculations with the measured temperature course during self-heatim of aotatoes or model material is shown. Model calculations indicate the advantage of high air velocities during ~recdoling.

This research was performed using experimental temperature data and a simple analytical model to estimate the temperature distributions at the centres of cylindrically canned products (diameter/thickness ratio = 4/1) during heat sterilization and cooling under continuous flow conditions for two reto
## Abstract The article presents a mathematical model of drying that describes the kinetics of combined microwaveβconvective drying for the process as a whole. Based on this model, the drying curves and the temperature evolutions of the drying body were constructed by a number of computerβsimulated
