  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.

    The charcoal has 'pores' that absorb odors and if you wash filters, it breaks down the pores and releases all of the particles that were trapped back into the air," Bauer explained.

    The charcoal filter also keeps your kitchen smelling clean by absorbing odors. As a result, you can enjoy the smell of leftover pasta and Rao's sauce that you're currently heating up instead of ...

  5. 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 ...

  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. Skin effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skin_effect

    Skin depth depends on the frequency of the alternating current; as frequency increases, current flow becomes more concentrated near the surface, resulting in less skin depth. Skin effect reduces the effective cross-section of the conductor and thus increases its effective resistance. At 60 Hz in copper, skin depth is about 8.5 mm. At high ...

    "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 ...

  9. Non-thermal microwave effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-thermal_microwave_effect

    Non-thermal microwave effects or specific microwave effects have been posited in order to explain unusual observations in microwave chemistry. The main effect of the absorption of microwaves by dielectric materials is a brief displacement in the permanent dipoles which causes rotational entropy.
