Evaluation of Rack-Type Convection Oven and Proof Box

Abstract

The report covers the evaluation of a commercial, gas-fired, rack- type convection oven and a commercial electrically heated proof box. The evaluation of the oven is to determine its capability for roasting large amounts of meat products and for baking large amounts of bread and bakery products and its suitability for military use. The evaluation of the proof box is to determine its capability to proof large amounts of dough products and its suitability for military use. The three major areas evaluated are (1) the engineering aspects, (2) the food preparation capabilities, and (3) the operational, human engineering, and safety aspects.
