Abstract:Uniform quality of cooked foods regardless of its position in the pot is desirable. However, there are no research about the effect of cooking scale on the flow and water temperature distribution. This study investigated the effects of the weight and the presence of food on the water temperature distribution and flow during cooking. Using nylon cylinders with thermophysical properties similar to those of root vegetables, the water temperature near the inner surface of the pot was measured. The water temperatur… Show more
