OPERAITONTHEORYOFMICROWAVE OVEN
1.Microwaveisakind ofhighfrequencyelectromagneticwave,whichiscommonlydistributed inthe nature.
Butthe existingformofmicrowaveisdispersed sothatitcannotbecollected togetherforheatingpurpose.The
keycomponentofmagnetron ofmicrowaveoven will transformthe energyofelectricitytomicrowaveandhuge
energyofmicrowavefieldisestablished underthe closed cavity.Sothe moleculeoffood iscaused tovibrateat
veryhighspeed and the friction heat producedwill cookthefood inafast way.
2. Thereis3propertiesofmicrowave, that is
a)Absorbability: themicrowavecan causetheexcessvibration ofmoleculeofvariousfood soastoobtainthe
heatingpurpose. But theinfiltration abilityislargelydepend onthesize, thickness and propertiesofthe food.
b)Penetrability:microwavecan penetratethroughceramics,glass,temperature-resistantplastics.It isrequired
tousethecontainerswhosematerialhavegood microwavepenetrabilitytoachievebestheatingresult.See
the belowutensilsguide.
c)Reflectivity:microwavewouldbereflected bythemetalwall ofinteriorcavitysoastoestablishaneven
magneticfield, thuscan prevent the overheatingofpartialarea.
NSTALLATIONOFMICROWAVE OVEN
1)Toensuresufficientventilation,the distancefromthe back of microwavetothe wallshouldbeabove10cm,
the side tothewall above5cm, the toptothe ceilingabove20 cm.
2)Donot placeanyobjectson the topofmicrowaveoven.
3)Keepthe microwaveoven farfromthe TV, Radioorantenna aspicturedisturbanceornoisemayoccur.
4)Keepthe plugaccessibletothe socket.
5)Thisisdesigned asafreestandingstyleand shouldnot beplaced inacabinet.
