“…Input parameters to the SHMT model were oven temperature (180,190,200,210,220,230, and 240 C), heat transfer coefficient (5, 10, 15, 20, and 25 W m À2 K À1 ), and product radius (0.025, 0.03, and 0.035 m). These values were selected according to reported data for conventional baking ovens and common industrial practice (Baik, Grabowski, Trigui, Marcotte, & Castaigne, 1999;Baik, Marcotte, & Castaigne, 2000;Carson, Willix, & North, 2006;Li & Walker, 1996;Sakin, Kaymak-Ertekin, & Ilicali, 2009;Therdthai et al, 2002;Zareifard, Boissonneault, & Marcotte, 2009). Initial temperature and water content were assumed to be uniform and equal to 25 C and 0.65 kg kg À1 (dry basis), respectively.…”
