THE EFFECT OF WALL LOSSES IN THE NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF MICROWAVE HEATING PROBLEMS

摘要

A study is made into the numerical modeling of wall losses for a microwave heating application. It makes use of a surface integral term for both a frequency and time domain finite edge element formulation in order to model the wall impedance of the enclosed microwave cavity. The paper describes how the surface element matrix of the complex wall impedance is combined with the matrix formulation.
