  2. This Is When to Replace Your Microwave’s Charcoal Filter - AOL

    www.aol.com/replace-microwave-charcoal-filter...

    A microwave charcoal filter is located in over-the-range microwaves that are not vented to the outside. The charcoal filter works to absorb unwanted odors in the air while you’re cooking.

  3. The Part of Your Microwave You’re Probably Not Cleaning - AOL

    The exhaust fan is responsible for circulating clean air while you heat food and drinks in the microwave or cook on your stove. While a well-functioning grease filter is excellent at its job, it ...

    "The drier the food, the less likely to be heated by microwave energy," Yousef told the outlet. "Even popcorn has some water inside the kernels. Without that water, it would not pop in the ...

  5. Dielectric heating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dielectric_heating

    A microwave oven uses dielectric heating to cook food.. Dielectric heating, also known as electronic heating, radio frequency heating, and high-frequency heating, is the process in which a radio frequency (RF) alternating electric field, or radio wave or microwave electromagnetic radiation heats a dielectric material.

  6. Susceptor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Susceptor

    If there is an air gap (or at least, poor thermal contact) between the susceptor and food, the susceptor will heat to a much higher temperature (due to its smaller effective heat capacity when in poor contact with food), and, at these higher temperatures, will radiate strongly in the infrared. This infrared radiation then shines onto the food ...

  7. Microwave burn - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave_burn

    The depth of penetration depends on the frequency of the microwaves and the tissue type. The Active Denial System ("pain ray") is a less-lethal directed energy weapon that employs a microwave beam at 95 GHz; a two-second burst of the 95 GHz focused beam heats the skin to a temperature of 130 °F (54 °C) at a depth of 1/64th of an inch (0.4 mm) and is claimed to cause skin pain without lasting ...

    Over-the-range microwaves typically have both a grease filter and a charcoal filter and they should each be handled differently when it comes time to replace or clean them. Here are Bauer's top tips:

  9. Non-thermal microwave effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-thermal_microwave_effect

    Non-thermal effects in liquids are almost certainly non-existent, [1] [2] as the time for energy redistribution between molecules in a liquid is much less than the period of a microwave oscillation. A 2005 review has illustrated this in application to organic chemistry, though clearly supports the existence of non-thermal effects. [ 3 ]
