Energy Efficient Microwave Systems

Many individual technological solutions for microwave applications in industries have been developed without a clear pattern for a key strategy to replace conventional industrial technologies. In this work, the author shows how a modular microwave system line for very homogenous microwave fields is originated. "Energy Efficient Microwave Technologies" is designed for engineers and scientists from industry and academic research. The number of applications of this new technology is enormous: In this book, applications in the avionic field are shown as well as new methods in microwave materials processing for composite materials including new quantum aspects on microwave heating.

From the reviews:“This is a small book of about 100 pages that discusses industrial applications of electromagnetic fields at microwave- and millimeter-wave frequencies. … The book deserves special attention from the academic community because books about industrial applications of electromagnetic fields are a rarity. Students or Ph.D.s could learn from this small book that the electromagnetic field … . On the contrary, it could have applications in our daily life.” (Mircea Dragoman, Optics & Photonics News, April, 2010)“Dr Feher introduces the reader to the various microwave sources and points out that … using higher frequencies, say up to 30 GHz, can present certain advantages for particular applications. … The strength of the book lies in the ease with which some complex arguments are navigated leading to equations that are used in subsequent chapters. … this book will find a niche in specialised markets and in particular for those researchers that are concerned with the heating of composite materials with microwaves.” (Ricky Metaxas, Ampere Newsletter, Issue 64, March, 2010)
