  2. Microwave oven - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave_oven

    A microwave oven or simply microwave is an electric oven that heats and cooks food by exposing it to electromagnetic radiation in the microwave frequency range. [1] This induces polar molecules in the food to vibrate [2] and produce thermal energy in a process known as dielectric heating.

  3. Dielectric heating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dielectric_heating

    An industrial microwave tunnel oven for heating plastic parts prior to extrusion. Microwave heating, as distinct from RF heating, is a sub-category of dielectric heating at frequencies above 100 MHz, where an electromagnetic wave can be launched from a small dimension emitter and guided through space to the target.

  4. Microwave chemistry - Wikipedia

    Specific microwave effects are those effects that cannot be (easily) emulated through conventional heating methods. Examples include: (i) selective heating of specific reaction components, (ii) rapid heating rates and temperature gradients, (iii) the elimination of wall effects, and (iv) the superheating of solvents.

  5. Microwave heat distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave_Heat_Distribution

    The microwave heat distribution is the distribution (allocation) of the heat release inside the microwave absorptive material irradiated with high intensive microwaves.The pattern of microwave heat distribution depends on many physical parameters, which may include the electromagnetic field, the specific absorption rate and structure of the processed material, the geometrical dimensions of the ...

  6. Microwave volumetric heating - Wikipedia

    The FDA accepts that microwaves can be used to heat food for commercial use, pasteurization and sterilization. [4] The main mechanism of microbial inactivation by microwaves is due to thermal effect; the phenomenon of lethality due to 'non-thermal effect' is controversial, and the mechanisms suggested include selective heating of micro-organisms, electroporation, cell membrane rupture, and ...

    Putting a non-microwave-safe material in a microwave oven can lead to chemicals leaching into your food (not good) or the melting of the container, which can lead to burns — or, at the very ...
