Description

Magnetron anode power supply ripple mixing multi-frequency heating device and method
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of microwave heating, and particularly relates to a magnetron anode power supply ripple mixing multi-frequency heating device and method.
Background
Microwave is widely applied to various fields such as food, chemical industry, metallurgy, sewage treatment and the like as a novel clean energy. The microwave directly acts on the polar molecules and the charged particles in the heated material, so the microwave heating has the advantages of selective heating, body heating, cleaning heating and the like. However, the microwave generally has the problem of uneven heating in the actual heating process, uneven heating causes local overhigh temperature to form a 'hot spot', the absorption capacity of a plurality of substances to electromagnetic waves is in positive correlation with the temperature, the temperature of the 'hot spot' area rises faster, and finally, a 'thermal runaway' phenomenon is formed, so that the large-scale application of the microwave energy is greatly restricted.
With the development of science and technology and the improvement of the living standard of people, microwave ovens are more and more paid attention by consumers and slowly become necessary household appliances in kitchens. Since microwave heating has the advantages of high heating speed, low energy consumption, convenient control at any time and the like, the microwave oven is gradually widely applied. However, with the continuous development of the technology, the requirements of consumers for microwave ovens are gradually increased, especially in terms of the heating uniformity and heating efficiency of food. The traditional microwave oven has the working frequency of 2450MHz, only a single microwave source and single frequency are adopted for heating, and although the cavity of the microwave oven is a multi-mode resonant cavity and can excite a plurality of electromagnetic modes in the cavity, the number of the excited modes is limited, and the phenomenon of uneven heating still exists.
In the aspect of improving the heating uniformity of the microwave oven, a lot of work is done by students. In 1989, a concept of rotating an antenna was proposed, namely, the antenna rotates along with a driver, and a mode field in a cavity is changed, so that field distribution is changed, and heating uniformity is improved. In 1995, Yan Limni et al worked primarily to explore the effect of disk rotation in the cavity of a microwave oven on heating uniformity and the relationship between load size and area and microwave oven output power. In 2001, the regular rectangular waveguide and the resonant cavity are subjected to simulation analysis by using FEM (finite element method) of Sung Yi and Lie Liu, and the more the excited resonant frequency in the cavity is, the more uniform the field distribution is. In 2006, Shinya Watanabe et al calculated THE heat conduction by THE che method and THE electromagnetic field by THE FDTD method, and studied THE temperature distribution on THE surface of THE object to be heated. In 2017, Sang-Hyeon Bae and Min-Gyo Jeong researched microwave conveyor belt type dryers with sustainable power control made of multiple 2.45GHz microwave sources, and the input power of the microwave sources was sequentially controlled, so that the uniformity of cavity heating could be improved. The intermediate frequency signal refers to a frequency signal with a frequency range from 300KHz to 3000KHz, and in a radio frequency communication system, a signal before modulation is called a baseband signal, a signal after mixing is called a radio frequency (or high frequency) signal, and an intermediate frequency signal is between the two stages.
The prior art has not studied how to enable a single microwave source to output microwaves with multiple frequencies to uniformly heat materials so as to solve the problem of non-uniformity of materials heated by microwaves. Even if it is considered that the material is heated by microwaves of a plurality of frequencies, the number of microwave sources is generally increased, which inevitably leads to an increase in cost. Or even if a single microwave source can output microwaves of multiple frequencies, a mixer and a large number of auxiliary components which are separately provided must be used, which also results in an increase in cost. The invention realizes that a single microwave source outputs microwaves with a plurality of frequencies at low cost, and the frequency of the output microwaves is controllable and adjustable, thereby ensuring the uniformity of microwave heating.

In practice, the magnetron outputs a large number of microwaves of different frequencies, but the microwaves of the main three frequencies have high intensity, so that only the microwaves of the three frequencies are considered, and the microwaves of the other low frequencies can be ignored. The verification of improving the material heating uniformity by outputting microwaves with three different frequencies by a magnetron in COMSOL Multiphysics simulation software is only needed:
description of the experiment: because the software can not realize the simultaneous feeding of the sources with different frequencies, the invention adopts the mode that a single frequency source is used for feeding in the COMSOL Multiphysics, and the temperature rise results obtained under different frequencies are exported to MATLAB software for calculation, thereby simulating the effect of magnetron tri-frequency simultaneous output.
Firstly, the cavity is designed to be a rectangular cavity with the size of 405 multiplied by 295 multiplied by 340mm, the magnetron adopts BJ-26 rectangular waveguide feed, and potatoes with the size of 50 multiplied by 50mm are placed in the cavity as materials. In simulation verification, a single microwave source with the frequency of 2.45GHz and the power of 600W and three microwaves with different frequencies, the central frequency of which is 2.45GHz and the frequency difference of which is 2-8 MHz (for example, the frequency difference of 2MHz is that the frequency of the three microwaves is 2.448GHz, 2.45GHz and 2.452GHz), and the power of which is 200W are respectively fed, temperature rise data are led into MATLAB for calculation, and a three-frequency heating result is simulated, so that the improvement effect of the heating uniformity is verified by comparing the method.
The mean temperature (ave) and the temperature coefficient of variation (cov) were calculated for each case using MTALAB software, with the temperature coefficient of variation (cov) being the ratio of the standard deviation of the raw data to the mean of the raw data, reflecting the absolute value of the degree of dispersion of the data, with smaller cov values indicating more uniform heating. The improved heating uniformity of the potatoes at different positions was also calculated.
The following table is data of a potato positioned 50mm directly below the center point of the cavity:
Figure BDA0003303017840000111
the following table is data for a potato positioned 80mm directly below the center point:

Figure BDA0003303017840000113
Figure BDA0003303017840000121
the conclusion can be drawn from the data, the intermediate frequency signal is modulated to the modulation circuit on the magnetron high-voltage power supply, so that the magnetron is mixed to generate a microwave signal with specified frequency difference, the microwave heating of three-frequency output is realized, the good effect on improving the heating uniformity is achieved, and the expected purpose can be achieved. The optimal frequency of the intermediate frequency signal can be selected according to experiments, so that the material heating uniformity is optimal.
Fig. 15 is a heating simulation diagram of a rectangular cavity with a cavity design of 405 × 295 × 340mm, where a potato is located 50mm right below the center point of the cavity, the initial temperature is 293.15K, and the heating time is 20s, a microwave with 2.45GHz is input at a single frequency, the power is 600W, and it can be seen that the average temperature ave is 313.68K, and cov is 0.5352;
fig. 16 is a heating simulation diagram of a rectangular cavity with a cavity design of 405 × 295 × 340mm, potatoes located 50mm right below the center point of the cavity, an initial temperature of 293.15K, and a heating time of 20s, microwaves with three frequency differences of 4MHz (2.45GHz, 2.446GHz, 2.454GHz) are input, a power of 200W, and it can be seen that an average temperature ave is 310.63K, and cov is 0.3738;
as can be seen from comparison of fig. 15 and 16, the maximum temperature and the average temperature of the triple-frequency heating are not higher than those of the single-frequency heating, but the average temperature difference is smaller, and the temperature distribution of the surface of the body shows that the triple-frequency heating has certain improvement effect on the uniformity.
