Abstract

AbstractPrecise knowledge of millimeter-wave oven properties and design studies have to be obtained by 3D numerical field calculations. A simulation code solving the electromagnetic field problem based on a covariant raytracing scheme (MiRa-Code) has been developed. Time dependent electromagnetic field-material interactions during sintering as well as the heat transfer processes within the samples has been investigated. A numerical code solving the nonlinear heat transfer problem due to millimeter-wave heating has been developed (THESIS3D-Code). For a self consistent sintering simulation, a zip interface between both codes exchanging the time advancing fields and material parameters is implemented. Recent results and progress on calculations of field distributions in large overmoded resonators as well as results on modeling heating of materials with millimeter waves are presented in this paper. The calculations are compared to experiments.
