Abstract :
Measuring temperature in material being heated by radio-frequency (RF) fields is difficult because of field perturbations and direct heating caused by any conventional leads connected to the temperature sensor. A temperature probe consisting simply of a thermistor and plastic high-resistance leads appears to practically eliminate these problems. The design goals are described, and the performance of an initial test model of this type of probe is discussed.
