Optimization of microwave-halogen lamp baking of bread
Demirekler, Pınar; Şümnü, Servet Gülüm; Department of Food Engineering (2004)
The main objective of this study was to optimize the processing conditions of breads baked in halogen lamp-microwave combination oven by using response surface methodology. It was also aimed to construct neural network models for the prediction of quality parameters of bread as a function of processing conditions. Different baking time and power combinations were used in order to find the optimum baking conditions of bread in halogen lamp-microwave combination oven. The independent variables were the baking...
Optimization of Processing Conditions During Halogen Lamp-Microwave Baking of Cakes
Sevimli, Kadriye Melike; Şümnü, Servet Gülüm; Department of Food Engineering (2004)
The main objective of this study was to optimize processing conditions during halogen lamp-microwave combination baking of cake by using Response Surface Methodology. It was also aimed to compare quality of products baked in microwave-halogen lamp combination oven, halogen lamp oven, microwave oven and conventional oven. In the first part of the study, as independent variables, baking time for conventional oven; microwave power and baking time for microwave oven; halogen lamp power and baking time for halog...
Optimization of microwave frying of potato slices
Öztop, Mecit Halil; Şahin, Serpil; Department of Food Engineering (2005)
The main objective of this study is to evaluate the effects of microwave frying process on the quality of potato slices and to optimize the process by using different statistical optimization techniques. Use of microwave frying for food products may be considered as a new way of improving the quality of the fried foods. In the first part of the study, the effects of microwaves on quality of fried potatoes (moisture content, oil content, color and hardness) were studied and the process was optimized by using...
Modeling of tempering of frozen potato puree by microwave, infrared assisted microwave and ohmic heating methods
Seyhun, Nadide; Şümnü, Servet Gülüm; Department of Food Engineering (2008)
The main purpose of this thesis is to develop a model that can predict the temperature profile inside a frozen food sample during microwave tempering and infrared assisted microwave tempering processes. Another goal of the study is to compare the tempering time of frozen foods by using microwave, infrared assisted microwave, and ohmic heating methods. Frozen potato puree was used as the food sample for all studies. Three different microwave power levels (30%, 40%, and 50%) were used for microwave tempering ...
Investigation of physical properties of different cake formulations during baking with microwave and infrared-microwave combination
Şakıyan Demirkol, Özge; Şümnü, Servet Gülüm; Department of Food Engineering (2007)
The main objective was to determine the variation of physical properties of different cake formulations during baking in microwave and infrared-microwave combination ovens. In the first part of the study, rheological and dielectric properties of cake batter with different formulations were determined. Different concentrations of fat and different types of emulsifier and fat replacer were used. The variation of formulation had a significant effect on the apparent viscosity of the cake batter. Cake batter was...
