Abstract :
A new method is presented which employs a theory to calculate the dimensions of TM0l0 cavities for the heat treatment of cylindrical samples of known dielectric properties. The design of such cavities to treat a column of distilled water is described in detail. Utilisation efficiencies and the average electric field strength developed in the water in the 2.45 GHz cavity are obtained from calorimetric measurements.
