Abstract :
We present the theory and experimental observation on the polarization-charge shielding effects in microwave heating. A wood-stick sample is irradiated by a uniform traveling wave in an anechoic chamber. As a result of polarization-charge shielding, the heating rate is shown to be highly dependent on the orientation of the sample with respect to the wave electric field.
