【Abstract】 The use of microwave power as an alternative energy source for processing ceramic materials offers great potential for future application. It is one of the key points how to improve the heating uniformity for microwave processing of ceramics. A new type of multimode cavity with a 3dB bridge and two coupling apertures perpendicular to each other has been established based on the principle of rotating field. A rotating electromagnetic field is formed inside the cavity, so it greatly improves the heating uniformity. The heating system which consists of the cavity and a 5 kW variable power microwave source operating at 2450 MHz is characterized by simple construction, high efficiency and good performance, so it is suitable for microwave processing of large sized ceramic workpieces. Advanced ceramic materials, such as Al 2O 3, ZrO 2, Si 3N 4, etc, have been sintered successfully using the new system.更多还原
