En conséquence, la chambre chauffante (12) n'est pas rendue inutilement étroite. De plus, la section d'électrode est agencée à l'intérieur d'une chambre d'antenne (13), et la section d'électrode et une denrée alimentaire (F) sont empêchées d'entrer en contact par une section de paroi qui délimite la chambre de chauffage (12) et la chambre d'antenne (13). La distance séparant la section d'électrode et la denrée alimentaire (F) ne devient pas inutilement longue parce que la chambre de chauffage (12) et la chambre d'antenne (13) sont adjacentes l'une à l'autre. En conséquence, la précision de la détection de capacité est améliorée.
