Boiled Egg picture

Boiled Egg FEM

• Conducted a comprehensive analysis to predict the transient conduction heat transfer inside an egg when placed from room temperature into boiling water.

• Brainstormed and established assumptions to refine the geometric and physical model for accurate simulation results.

• Utilized COMSOL simulation software to generate temperature plots along the center axis and 2-D plane cuts at specific times.

• Successfully plotted the temperature distribution along the egg's center axis using a semi-analytic solution, facilitating the prediction of the ideal cooking time for egg whites while preserving the yolk's desired consistency.
