- Side wall 21 is disposed opposite of oven cavity side wall 19
- the type (i.e. power) of magnetron used is a matter of choice and is based on well known selection factors Use of 2450 MHz magnetrons were found suitable in the embodiment shown in FIGS. 16-18
- each magnetron 210 feeds microwaves into and through a conduit 212 associated with the particular magnetron assembly and through the openings 200 and into the oven cavity
- the openings 200 and conduit structure 212 are arranged such that a more uniform dispensing of microwave is provided within the oven cavity
