Abstract Multi-mode cavity resonances are generally considered the most important phenomenon in transferring energy to the load in microwave ovens. There are, however, other important phenomena, caused by scattering and near-fields. This paper deals with the multi-mode resonant and some other important field types. Some main areas where sufficient knowledge is not available are described and the main problems in applying simplified models are discussed. Key Words: Microwave oven, power distribution, resonance, scattering, near fields, load design, research needed.
