In recent years the use of hybrid drying methods has been noticed because of the improvement of the dried products quality. The effect of infrared (IR) power (0, 400, 600, and 800 W) in combination with convective hot air (60 °C, 3 m/s) on the quality properties of black raspberry pulp during foam mat drying was investigated in this study. According to the findings, increasing the IR power, (IR-CHA) had no effect on the moisture content, moisture ratio, or drying rate of the product; however, the effective moisture diffusion coefficient (D) was significantly increased. The effect of IR power on the physicochemical properties of black raspberry powder revealed that combining infrared with convective hot air (IR-CHA) improved the powder's flowability and total polyphenol content while decreasing its moisture content (p < 0.05). Furthermore, FESEM images revealed that the increase in IR power resulted in particles with smooth surfaces.

Steam injection, especially in a superheated state, increases the rate of heat transfer and improves the quality of the baked products. In this research, different baking methods (forced convention, superheated steam, and superheated steam-assisted) at different temperatures (140°C, 160°C, 180°C) were applied to produce a new formulated rice cake containing acorn flour and inulin. The findings revealed that the level of moisture inside the oven directly influences the volume of the cake.

Slow oxidation of coal during storage and transportation poses significant risks, making it essential to identify hot spots and understand the heat generation and gas production patterns in coal stockpiles. This study leverages the advantages of adiabatic oxidation experiments, which account for time effects, to accurately describe the low-temperature oxidation process of coal through warming and gas production dimensions. Additionally, the warming and gas production patterns of three-dimensional coal stockpiles with varying stacking parameters were investigated.

The hydrodynamic and thermal interactions between neighboring vapor bubbles on hot surfaces play a crucial role in heat transport and flow characteristics. To investigate these interactions, we conducted numerical simulations of saturated vapor bubbles in a two-dimensional square enclosure filled with liquid water. The water was heated at the bottom and cooled at the top to replicate boiling at 100^{∘}C and normal atmospheric pressure.

In industrial measurement, temperature field measurement typically relies on thermocouples and spectroscopic techniques. These traditional methods often suffer from insufficient precision, resulting in prevalent low-resolution measurements in real thermal scenarios. To address this challenge, we propose a novel general super-resolution approach for temperature field measurement in various thermal scenarios, leveraging the low-resolution (LR) data obtained from sensor array technology.
