Synopsis

Providing practical information along with experimental evidence, analysis of existing data, and simulations you can run yourself, this is a manual on microwave heating for engineers and non-engineers alike. It aims to enhance the reader's understanding of the different classes of microwave heating cavities and their properties, the field distribution patterns in loaded and unloaded cavities, cross-coupling between feeds in a multiple feed loaded multimode cavity, and empty, coaxially and eccentrically loaded single-mode cavities. It also contains a method for evaluating the field pattern and status of the load being heated inside a microwave heating cavity. The accompanying diskette contains four MATLAB codes for producing a 2D view of the cavity mode for a given frequency and load size.

About the Author

Tse Voon Chow Ting Chan is a postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering at the University of Stellenbosch in South Africa, where he earned his Ph.D. in Microwave Heating. He received his B.Sc. in Electronics cum laude from the University of Natal (Durban). He is a member of the IEEE and the South African Institute of Electrical Engineers (SAIEE). Howard Charles Reader is Chair of High Frequency Electronics in the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering at the University of Stellenbosch. Since 1986, he has been teaching and consulting in the fields of microwave dielectric heating, metrology, electromagnetics, antenna engineering, high frequency circuits, and electromagnetic compatibility. Dr. Reader received his Ph.D. in Time Domain Electromagnetics from St. John's College of Cambridge University, and his B.Sc. in Electronic Engineering from King's College, London. He is also a member of the Professional Group on Electromagnetic Compatibility of the IEE.
