Abstract A theoretical
investigation is made of the effect of varying the location of the load in tuning
behaviour of microwave ovens. Effect of dielectric losses is also taken into
account. The computed data are for the dimensions of a rectangular cavity of
a commercial microwave oven and at the heating frequency of 915 MHz. The
analysis concerns both transverse electric (TE) and transverse magnetic (TM)
modes, using 'the transverse resonance method’. Profiles of resonant
frequency of several modes are given as a function of thickness, dielectric
properties, and location of the processed material. |
