Abstract A new type of measuring head with a strip-line
configuration is described for use in microwave attenuation measurements for
moisture determination. The various design and operation parameters of the
system are explored. The advantage of the system is shown to be that it is
capable of measuring very high moisture contents without restricting the
sample size. In addition, in its final form the sensing head needs only to be
on one side of the material to be monitored. Some results are shown for fish
meal and means of enhancing the sensitivity are described. |
