How to get the heat and mass transfer coefficients? Boundary layer assumption (ReL)1/2 >> 1 (slenderness ratio)
might not be satisfied.
Therefore, the whole Navior-Stokes equation needs to be solved.

Average mass transfer coefficient is 3 times when velocity of air blowing the surface is decreased by 10 times.

Distance from the edge
Similar results seen for heat transfer coefficient also. High values at the entry point and towards the exit, the value matches the boundary layer solution.

Conclusion Conjugate model developed which can Solve processes without assuming any transfer coefficients at the
boundary Microwave heating is solved and h & hm is estimated from the simulation.
h and hm calculated from the conjugate problem can be used in non-conjugate problem to give faster and accurate results
Demonstrates the transient effects of blowing on heat and mass transfer coefficients

Future work Conjugate problem for intensive heating processes Higher heating rate therefore blowing is significant
Conjugate problem for frying simulation where instead of air, there is hot oil outside Challenges like huge density change at the boundary, vanishing
of a phase in domain, turbulence needs to be answered in this model
