Abstract

The baking process in tunnel ovens can be influenced by many parameters. Among these, the most important can be considered as: the baking time, the volume of dough pieces, the texture and humidity of the dough, the distribution of temperature inside the oven, as well as the flow of air currents applied in the baking chamber. In order to obtain a constant quality of bakery or pastry products, and for the efficient operation of the oven, it is necessary that the solution made by the designers be subjected to modelling, simulation and analysis processes, before their manufacture, and in this sense it can be applied to the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) numerical simulation tool. In this study, we made an analysis of the air flow inside the baking chamber of an oven. The analyzed oven was used very frequently on the pastry lines. After performing the modelling and simulation, the temperature distribution inside the oven was obtained in the longitudinal and transverse planes. For the experimental validation of the temperatures obtained in the computer-assisted simulation, the temperatures inside the analyzed electric oven were measured. The measured temperatures validated the simulation results with a maximum error of 7.6%.

隧道式电烤箱烘烤室中的气流分析
隧道式烤箱的烘烤过程会受到许多参数的影响。其中最重要的参数包括:烘烤时间、面团的体积、面团的质地和湿度、烤炉内的温度分布以及烘烤室中的气流流动。为了保证烘焙或糕点产品的质量稳定,并使烤箱高效运行,设计人员有必要在产品生产前对解决方案进行建模、模拟和分析,从这个意义上讲,可以将其应用于计算流体动力学(CFD)数值模拟工具。在这项研究中,我们对烤箱烘烤室内的气流进行了分析。被分析的烤箱在糕点生产线上使用非常频繁。在进行建模和模拟后,我们得到了烤箱内纵向和横向的温度分布。为了对计算机辅助模拟中获得的温度进行实验验证,对被分析电烤箱内部的温度进行了测量。测量温度验证了模拟结果,最大误差为 7.6%。
