Abstract
A method of monitoring the water content of homogeneous (single-layer) and composite (two-layer) materials in the course of microwave heating is described. According to this, microwave heating is performed for a short period of time, after which the temperature is measured in each layer and the water content is calculated using relations established with allowance for the attenuation of the incident electromagnetic wave power.
