Abstract:
Temperature profiles of a carbon fiber epoxy composite disk heated in a single modecontrolled multimode cylindrical resonant cavity with 2.45 GHz microwave energy indicate that microwave energy is limited in its penetration into the disk, from the top and the perimeter a skin effect. Initial heating profiles allow an approximate determination of the penetration depth. In the steady state, the temperature gradients indicate that the heat flow was primarily by thermal conduction from the perimeter of the disk, toward the center and out the upper and lower surfaces.
