Description

Waveguide slot array heater
Technical Field
The utility model relates to a waveguide gap array heater belongs to microwave heating technical field.
Background
With the development of science and technology, in industrial production, people put forward higher requirements on energy conservation, emission reduction and clean and efficient production, the traditional heating cannot completely meet the requirements, and at the moment, the microwave heating technology with the characteristics of high efficiency, energy conservation, cleanliness and the like is developed. Starting from microwave ovens, this heating mode gradually goes into people's lives and exhibits great potential for development. The heat effect of the microwave is not limited to heating food at present, and the microwave has great development potential in other various fields. Microwave heating has wide application in medical treatment, new material preparation, material treatment and the like. These aspects have together driven the development of microwave heating systems.
Microwave heating is a heating mode which absorbs microwave energy by an object and converts the microwave energy into heat energy to heat the whole body of the object at the same time. Compared with microwave heating, the traditional heating mode is that heat is transferred to material heat from the outside according to heat conduction, convection and radiation principles, the heat is always transferred from the outside to the inside to heat materials, a temperature gradient inevitably exists in the materials, and therefore the heated materials are uneven, so that the materials are locally overheated. Therefore, compared with the traditional heating mode, the microwave heating mode has obvious advantages: the thermal inertia is small, selective heating can be carried out according to different wave-absorbing materials, and the wave-absorbing material is green and energy-saving and the like.
Although microwave heating has many advantages compared with traditional heating, in practical industrial production, when high-power microwaves are applied to microwave heating technology, because the electromagnetic field distribution in a heating cavity is not uniform and the microwave absorption capacity of each material can change along with the change of temperature, and meanwhile, because of the dielectric loss of a medium, the temperature of the medium can rise as long as the microwave acts on the medium, so that the microwave heating is easy to generate a hot spot and thermal runaway phenomenon, and the safety and effectiveness of microwave energy application are reduced.
At present, designers mainly study the uniformity of an electric field in a resonant cavity in the process of designing a microwave heater, and the size of the cavity and the position or the number of feed ports can influence the uniformity of the electric field. Designers often resort to HFSS software to optimize the electric field within the cavity and the feed-in reflection. The mode of simulating before processing experiment greatly reduces the research cost.
The microwave heater is designed to be used as a carrier for microwave heating, namely the design of a microwave resonant cavity becomes the key for converting microwave energy into heat energy. The shape of the microwave cavity has a great influence on the distribution of the electromagnetic field therein: the resonant cavity with the improper shape has poor heating effect, and even the resonant cavity cannot generate resonance at all. At present, the common microwave heating cavity mainly comprises a rectangular resonant cavity, a cylindrical resonant cavity and a spherical resonant cavity. Compared with rectangular and spherical resonant cavities, the cylindrical resonator has the advantages of low manufacturing cost, strong pressure resistance, larger and easily controlled geometric dimension, very high Q value, mature manufacturing process and the like.

However, due to the restriction of the cavity structure, the number of modes existing in the cavity is small, and the field distribution is not uniform.
