Abstract Dielectric properties of raw,
unprocessed potatoes, carrots, apples, peaches and pears were measured at
room temperature in the frequency range from 100 to 10000 MHz. Experimental
methods and the sample holder are briefly described. The results for the
dielectric constant and the loss factor are presented as a function of
frequency. The results are in good agreement with theoretical data obtained
from Maxwell's mixture theory. |
