文摘

Microwave heating is simulated for a variety of circular and square food samples. Effect of shape on overall heating rate and spatial heating dynamics is analyzed. Analysis includes all four groups of food materials showing entire heating spectrum. Results reveal interesting corner effect in various square food samples. Results show that circular samples may not be the best configuration for some cases.
