Abstract |
A study was made to investigate the variables that must be considered in any test procedure used to measure radiation leakage from microwave ovens. An evaluation was made of the effect of various factors involved in such measurements, including load temperature, size and shape of containers for the load, water load repeatability, and the suitability of loads other than water. A study was also made of the distribution of microwave patterns in an oven using sponge substrate impregnated with hydrated cobaltous chloride. The chemically impregnated sponge test could be a very helpful aid in determining the test load position in order to create the condition of worst possible leakage from a microwave oven. (Author) |
