Temperature and heat flow analysis in a drying chamber through finite element method

Food production sectors have changed, transitioning from micro-enterprises and traditional, family-run operations to enormous investments and highly sophisticated industrial processes. However, the raw materials for food manufacturing are still derived from local farming or fishing. Thus, advancemen...
