MICROWAVING PRINCIPLES
Microwave energy has been used in this country to cook and reheat food since early experiments with RADAR in
World War ll. Microwaves are present in the atmosphere all the time, both naturally and manmade sources.
Manmade sources include radar, radio, television, telecommunication links and car phones.
Microwave oven is a Group 2 ISM equipment in which radio frequency energy is intentionally generated and used in
the form of electromagnetic radiation for the treatment of material. This oven is a Class B equipment suitable for use in
domestic establishments and in establishments directly connected to a low voltage power supply network which
supplies buildings used for domestic purposes.

Then they pass through the
cooking containers to be
absorbed by the water
molecules in the food, all
foods contain water to a more
or lesser extent.
The microwaves cause the water molecules to vibrate
which causes FRICTION, i.e. HEAT. This heat then
cooks the food. Microwaves are also attracted to fat and
sugar particles, and foods high in these will cook more
quickly. Microwaves can only penetrate to a depth of
4-5cm and as heat spreads through the food by
conduction, just as in a traditional oven, the food cooks
from the outside inwards.
In a microwave oven,
electricity is converted
into microwave by the
MAGNETRON.
The microwaves bounce
off the metal walls and
the metal door screen.
