2. Microwave oven - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave_oven

   Manufacturer. Various. Available. Globally. A microwave oven or simply microwave is an electric oven that heats and cooks food by exposing it to electromagnetic radiation in the microwave frequency range. [1] This induces polar molecules in the food to vibrate [2] and produce thermal energy in a process known as dielectric heating.

3. Induction cooking - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_cooking

   Induction cooking. Induction cooking is a cooking process using direct electrical induction heating of cooking vessels, rather than relying on indirect radiation, convection, or thermal conduction. Induction cooking allows high power and very rapid increases in temperature to be achieved: changes in heat settings are instantaneous.

4. Dielectric heating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dielectric_heating

   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. At higher frequencies, this heating is caused by molecular dipole rotation within ...

5. Microwave - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave

   Microwave. A telecommunications tower with a variety of dish antennas for microwave relay links on Frazier Peak, Ventura County, California. The apertures of the dishes are covered by plastic sheets (radomes) to keep out moisture. Microwave is a form of electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths shorter than other radio waves (as originally ...

6. Home appliance - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Home_appliance

   Refrigerator, toaster, kettle, microwave, blender. A home appliance, also referred to as a domestic appliance, an electric appliance or a household appliance, [1] is a machine which assists in household functions [2] such as cooking, cleaning and food preservation. The domestic application attached to home appliance is tied to the definition of ...

7. Cavity magnetron - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cavity_magnetron

   The modern magnetron is a fairly efficient device. In a microwave oven, for instance, a 1.1-kilowatt input will generally create about 700 watts of microwave power, an efficiency of around 65%. (The high-voltage and the properties of the cathode determine the power of a magnetron.)
