Never mind the maths. Something has gone TERRIBLY WRONG with the whole of society.

In conventional ovens the heat has to penetrate the food from the outside so it's going to be more complicated. Although I would imagine it's mostly done by spotty graduates in white coats poking things with thermometers rather than actual maths.
One of my old colleagues did her doctorate on finite element analysis of dissipation through heterogeneous fluids. Or "how baked beans get hot". Best/Shittest PhD title ever.
