摘要:
A radio frequency (RF) heating system for rapidly and uniformly heat packaged articles moving through the system on one or more convey lines. The RF heating system may utilize an RF heating chamber with a substantially round cross-sectional shape to heat the articles. The RF heating system may be useful for a variety of processes, including the pasteurization or sterilization of packaged ingestible items, such as foodstuffs, beverages, and medical or pharmaceutical fluids.

An optimized microwave barrier assembly suitable for use with a vacuum microwave heater. The barrier assembly is configured to allow microwaves to pass therethrough in a TMab mode, wherein a is 0 and b is an integer in the range of 1 to 5. The barrier assembly is also configured to maintain a pressure differential across a window of the barrier assembly. Such a configuration can reduce or eliminate arcing in the barrier assembly, even at low pressures.

An optimized system and process for heating wood using a microwave heater. The optimized system/process directs microwave energy towards different regions of the wood at different times during heating. In certain situations, microwave energy is introduced into the heater using microwave launchers and the system includes one or more microwave switches that control distribution of microwave energy to the microwave launchers so that two adjacent and/or opposing microwave launchers do not simultaneously introduce microwave energy into the heater. The optimized heating process also includes heating wood using a plurality of sequential heating cycles carried out at different conditions. For example, at least one of the heating cycles can be carried out at a lower input rate of microwave energy and/or at a lower pressure than one of the previous heating cycles.
